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.

A wall chart was enough to grab my kids last World Cup by Vegas J-Mack

I printed a large poster sized chart a week before the matches began in Brazil and hung it in my family room. My kids were 7 and 5 at the time. I let them alternate filling in the results. As the tournament progressed, they started getting into it more. They’d come home from school / Summer camp and ask what the result was of a particular match. I’d DVR what I thought would be the best match of that day and we’d watch it when we were all home. I’d catch them studying the chart from time to time. When the Women’s World Cup rolled around the next year, I printed another chart. After the US won, my daughter hung it in her room.

When it gets closer to kickoff, there will be more options. Some really well designed charts will become available.
