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.

Chelsea floated too many lazy passes in the middle by KnightlyRevue
of the park and Barca punished them nearly every time. I felt Dembele looked very strong today but as long as Busquets (hope he is ok) and Iniesta are allowed to possess the ball without any sort of real pressure Barca will pick you apart.
Curtois had a downright awful game. Messi nutted him twice and the first one was a downright softy.
Off to the next round and it is scary to think Spain could have had 4 teams in the 8s had Costa and Vitolo been around for group play. I imagine everyone is hoping they draw Sevilla or Roma.
