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.

That is an argument for staying at school. by NDCuse
I get the argument that if the school is open, they might as well play. Completing a football season may not pose a significantly greater risk than attending school but that is dependent upon myriad factors unique to each institution. We have already seen the meatheads running some of these programs try to skirt safety protocols. Football is a privilege and a luxury, and I cannot blame schools for foregoing such luxuries under the circumstances. If the players feel safer at school than at home, then they should stay at school regardless of whether there is a season.
