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.

You would be classified as a part time employee or would by Irishdog80

have to document your hours to prove that you were gainfully working 35-40 hours a week. I truly doubt most NCAA athletes are "working" full time for their sport any more than your average industrious student is working "full time" so they can get into med school or a great job. We all make choices with how we spend our time and it is often dependent upon where we see the return. For many athletes they put in the extra time so they can get a bigger reward.

I get it, your wife puts in a lot of hours and it seems to make you mad. No reason to be a keyboard warrior with the insults. Refute my arguments, don't attack me with histrionics...it's weak.
