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.

She has the right to live her life the way she wants by Murcer68
There is no disputing that. I'm happy for her if she is happy with the choices she has made. But if the only way she could be the first pick in the draft is to come out early, is that really as much of an achievement as if she turned pro after four years and went against Stewart in the draft and had been picked first overall? That's how I would look at it, but again, she can lead her life however she wants.
In any case, my original post was about the seeming rift between her and the other ND players of that era. If that is true, that's what I find sad. How fans (such as myself) view her loyalty or view anything else about her situation shouldn't concern her at all. The viewpoint of strangers (like me) should mean nothing to her.
