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.

Where is everyone!? by Barney68

Good morning ... respect the University of Bye ... or Buy ... or By ... or whatever it is!

But not next week's opponent! Michigan sucks!

And now, important information: Mrs. Barney68 recently added Alexa to our otherwise normal home. Asking the question "Alexa, does Michigan suck" get's an "I don't know" type response. THIS IS CLEARLY A DEFECTIVE PRODUCT!

Busy day today getting ready for a trip to NC to touch up the condo for the winter season since we don't have a guest this week.

Go IRISH! Beat Bye!

Edited to add: (Oh, and by the way, Michigan sucks!)
