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.

As I understand it, most bowl game tickets are by tf86
Pretty easy to come by. I wasn't able to make it to the Fiesta Bowl for our last national championship (somewhat foolishly in hindsight, I figured there would be others in the near future), and I lived in Jacksonville at the time. I wound up going to the Gator Bowl instead, in what was Vince Dooley's last game as Georgia head coach (vs. Michigan State). Fun fact for that game: New Year's Day fell on a Sunday that year, and the Gator Bowl was the only bowl game to play on Sunday.
Anyway, a bunch of us walked right up to the gate and got tickets for the game. Tickets cost $10 IIRC (it was over 30 years ago, after all).
