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.

Sat., Dec. 19 alert for PabloFanque and other Packers fans by G.K.Chesterton
The NFL announced today that the Packers are hosting the Panthers on Saturday, Dec. 19 at 7:15 pm. This is a sixth (6th) prime-time game for them but doesn't count against the limit of five per season.
The ACC title game is also on the same day, though the starting time hasn't been announced yet (we'll know in the next two weeks). If you needed an excuse to buy a second TV, this might be it, assuming ND does its part and the ACC game is in prime-time.
Note: the Packers game will be on NFL Network and will be on local TV in the Green Bay and Milwaukee markets.
