I read this on FB this morning:

"There were some sound and feedback issues, but they never let it phase them at all! They kept going and were GREAT!"

Does anyone know what is wrong with the first sentence?

Additionally:

"This kid is such a trooper. I am amazed at all he has had to go through and yet he has such a good attitude."

Does anyone know what is wrong with the first sentence?
