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.

Mostly, yes by Hunt
For all but a couple games a year, yes.
But if basketball is home it changes. Or if there is some sort of fencing or swimming big meet and it's also Junior Parents Weekend...or something weird like that, it gets impacted. I probably make about half the home games, I generally like to pull right in to the lot 10-15 minutes before game time, and I'd say I get "stuck" without a spot south of the JACC maybe twice a year.
I've gotten better at figuring out when those games are, and now I just choose to park in the Eddy Street Commons neighborhood on those games. But obviously, many people just think if MBB/WBB is home and not about the combo of other things that can mess it up too.
