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.

You mean in his 32 years? by domer4
Some highlights:
"We just needed more juice, more fire and we just seemed to lack that today and that's on me," Kelly said.
That's nearly identical to what he said after the blowout to Alabama in the national championship game January 2013 - like he wasn't expecting or understanding how pumped the other side would be - almost 10 years of that later?
He also tries to stay with "we" in the failure but of course still just wants to blame the players:
"This was not a step back. This was a bump in the road and they're going to learn from it."
"Our best players needed to make great plays and we fell short in that area."
