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.

Speaking of which, the next time one of you goes off on Buck by The Holtz Room

I’m going to Clockwork Orange you with Romo.

I will leave you a gun and single bullet.

If that doesn’t do the trick, I’ll beat you to death with a sack of nickels.


Honestly, Romo is EXCELLENT at discussing the technical aspects of the game. I think I’ve learned more about football during his short broadcast career. When it comes to everything else however, he sounds like a complete nitwit. I can’t hit mute for fear of losing out on valuable info, yet he won’t shut up sometimes.

Screw the Pats! (sorry Woody)
