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.

2 bright spots, numerous bad spots. by Fightorflight
Good:
1. Connor Morin was great coming from behind the cage.
2. Leonard performed well at the faceoff X
Bad
1. Costabile and Gleason were almost completely shut down.
2. We don’t have another dodger, especially at midfield, who can exploit a short stick middle
3. Leonard took 3 bad shots after a clean face off win that effectively resulted in turnovers. Twice he missed the cage when the fast break was set up and there was no backup on the shot, and once the ball fell out of his stick while trying to shoot.
4. Defense did a ton of ball watching, allowing some easy goals right on the crease. Our on ball defense is still solid, but the defensive scheme broke down, or Duke just did a great job of exposing us, when we slid and there was no backside help.
