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.

Good points. I believe the UConn game is a key by 2ndstreeter
difference between us and Baylor and may have helped get ND off to the poor start. Any semi game is big for all the teams involved, but when it’s against a historical rival it takes on an added emotional component and in this case even moreso I’d say than any other 2 schools in women’s basketball.
As to the poor start, the team essentially played Baylor even the second and third quarters until Cox went out. It was still at a 12 point deficit when she left late in the 3rd and ND began its comeback and eventually then took the lead.
I don’t think Baylor could have played much better and ND obviously could have. We just needed a better start.
