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.

FSU loses 2 at home in NCAAs but gets to Semis in SB CWS. by Domerduck

FSU was #7 seed overall and the ACC's 2nd highest seed (UNC #1, 6th overall) and lost their first 2 games to be eliminated. They were the only home team to be out after 2 games and joined Ohio State as the only schools from power conferences eliminated after only 2 games. Pretty embarrassing run for FSU.

The bright side for FSU is they are in the semis in the softball CWS in Oklahoma City as today they eliminated #1 seed Oregon after they eliminated #7 Georgia. Still they need to beat UCLA two straight times tomorrow to move into the finals. The best part is the ACC with their 2 teams lasted longer in the SB NCAAs than the SEC's 13 teams and will end up with a higher overall win% record. Oklahoma is also still in as they took out Florida, the #2 seed and last SEC school left. They have to beat Washington twice tomorrow to make it to the finals. With one win each though by UCLA & UW it could be an all PAC12 championship series. We will see Sunday.
