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 think it's funny that you're lecturing me as to the by jt
workload of college athletes and what the off season entails.
Uh, I am sort of familiar with this stuff, Irishdog80. I kind of have an idea, and I know that you don't. The idea that the work load is much less in the offseason is basically stating that they go from 80-100 hours per week to 40-50, so I suppose that's true in a sense, but not in the sense you mean, as you apparently believe they spend most of their time snapping towels in the shower at each other and gold's gymming it in the weight room by the curl bar.
