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.

Some Information on the Team Dinner/Banquet Needed by dillon77

Petty people need no more than a pittance to get their hate-pitches going again and -- can you believe this -- someone started a thread that MM is going to serve her team hot dogs at the team dinner/banquet. Of course, two folks have now decided this shows how MM really thinks of her team.

I personally like/love a great hot dog, but I'm looking for some context. Is there a traditional dinner this year? Is this the one where "MVP," "Most improved" etc are done? Or are the Irish not having it this year? And having something simpler....?

Thanks for sharing and setting context.....

Thanks
