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.

Dick Ebersol isn't walking through that door... by Nyirish08

The CFO of NBC Sports figured her qualified kid would get in two cycles ago. Great grades, sports, only place he wanted to go in the world was ND. Flat out rejected. Her husband is on the sales side at NBC and I think they've picked up a bit of dislike for the place. She is handling most of the numbers side of that negotiation.
"I go and hire Jack's daughter for a sought after position and he can't even find room in a class of 2000 for my son who was actually qualified."
