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.

A question for anyone who has attended a game at West Point. by Carlos Huerta
How much of a hassle is it getting onto campus for a game? The only time I've been on campus for an event was a Seinfeld show at the theater and I recall a pretty long back up to get through the security checkpoint. I assume they have a system in place for football but the game is next Friday at 6:00 and I probably wouldn't be able to get to the campus until relatively close to the start time. And yes I realize going to an Army game and missing out on tailgating is not the proper way to experience it but my kids are pushing this and their main interest is seeing live football.
