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.

Oh, and if I ran a company that wasn't profitable by jt
I would need to adjust or risk going out of business. That's what st Francis is doing. That's the way the market works. Exactly why should that be a concern to other athletes? I can see why other schools should care, but not athletes. Maybe notre Dame should chip in some of their nearly 100 million in profit between football and men's basketball?
As to the other athletes who might be losing opportunities, I again ask why that is a concern for football and men's basketball athletes? Seems like a problem for the schools to figure out, but of course they don't have to because rubes like yourself give them an out by demanding socialism for the athletes and free market for the schools.
