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.

Thank you both. by BabaGhanouj

Disappointed Danielle Patterson's name never came up, but happy that there was nothing but positive things to say. As Orangutan says, this time of year everything and every player is better than ever.

From the beginning when she was recruited, Jordan Nixon, through circumstances and ability, has been the golden child. Muffet has praised all the freshmen, but has singled out Jordan most often. All signs point to seeing a lot of Jordan this year. As we surmised from her videos and play in the McDonald's game, she is a very cerebral player—perfect for a McGraw point guard. In addition to talent, I'm hoping Jordan will benefit from the very real Pygmalion Principle.
