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.

Have to agree. by SXSW

As noted, Pete had a great Notre Dame career and made some fantastic plays. But for anyone who saw it in 1993, there is no way, if they are honest, that they can hear "Pete Bercich" and not think of what would have been if he had closed his fingers a split second sooner on that 1993 BC pass and made that interception. I think I thought of that play everyday for a year afterwards. It shouldm't have, but the fact is that the game, the incredible comeback to take the lead after being listless all game, and the national championship came down to that single play. And he just didn't make it. It still haunts me.
