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.

"Who is Tony Rice?" by NDMike2001

Uttered by a current student at a tailgate before USF.

BTW, I actually thought about posting regarding your misanthropy after UM. There are some really simple and indisputable points that you've made for quite some time that get lost - either by your tone or simply your reputation which elicits straw men. I'll limit them right now to Kelly (and paraphrase as I remember).

Kelly's offense sucks and will continue to suck until he can run the ball when he wants to.

He is pass happy.

He should deal with his yelling.

He hired assistants that either are not prepared to coach at ND and/or do not challenge his way of thinking.

I really wish the board would focus on insisting that these issues be remedied, instead of DCEing, armchair quarterbacking, bashing players and ourselves.

P.S. You've been plenty wrong on other things. But as I mentioned above, I can't imagine that anyone could possibly dispute them.
