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.

I met him at Sluggo's tailgate party many times by GolfJunkie17

(on the corner of St. Louis and St. Vincent) when it was still a thing. What a character - he was generous with his time and stories with everyone in attendance, and he always took the time to say hello to everyone whether he knew them or not. He always came with a stack of his football cards and a Sharpie to hand out autographs to anyone who he interacted with. He clearly loved Notre Dame, and performed his role as an ambassador dutifully. God bless, Red. Notre Dame lost a good man.
