This is not a vent board or any other kind of therapy. Before you hit the POST button, ask yourself if your contribution will add to the level of discussion going on.

Important notes on articles:

• Please do not copy entire articles into your post; rather, provide links to them.. We are now links-only for ALL Internet publications. If only a small portion of the article pertains to your post, Fair Use allows you to copy those one or two paragraphs, provided you cite the author's name and the publication for which he writes. Otherwise, put a link in the HTTP Link box.
• Even if you're copying a reference to an article, provide a link to the page from which the article came. We're trying to cut down on duplicate topics, and the posting process will check the link to your article to see if it's already being discussed on this board. At the very least, you'll save yourself some grief on the boards.
• If your first reaction after reading the article you're going to share is the author is uninformed / stupid / a jerk / all of the above, it's not worth sharing with anyone. Not every article needs to be discussed. The more the hair-pulling articles are discussed (e.g. ESPN Page 2), the more the authors will write hair-pulling articles.

Irish beat Denver 10-7. Never really in doubt. by Otter

Fantastic defensive effort by Notre Dame throughout the whole game. Schmidt was really good including a save with less than a minute left with Denver on the extra man again.

Notre Dame was good on face-offs. Denver was frustrated and took a lot of bad penalties. Tierney himself got an unsportsmanlike penalty for riding the officials.

As I said earlier, Denver’s offensive game does not do well with the shot clock. For years I’ve been frustrated with them taking three and four minutes on a possession. Tonight was fabulous to watch as they forced bad shots to try to beat the clock.

Costabile voted player of the game. This was the annual Pacific Coast Shootout in San Diego. Huge win
