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.

Yes, we're Notre Dame, not Clemson..... by Wolfetone
We could get somebody who goes 4-8 very year. I preach caution...
This is not your fathers Notre Dame. Times have changed. Catholic
high schoolers would rather go to some non-sectarian university.
You can't have any fun at Notre Dame. The grades are too high
to attract 5-star talent as our incumbent proves every recruiting
season. South Bend is a dump where no high profile coach's wife
would ever call home. The bar life is seedy and you can't party
in perpetuity. The AD,er DA, has more pressing issues on his mind
and we will never win another National Championship as it is
virtually impossible at ND. I can't remember the last coach to win
one. Besides 8-4 guarantees an invite to the Johnny Appleseed Bowl
in Minot...
