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.

Added time decided last playoff spot by SixShutouts66
Forest had a lead over Swansea of 5 goals in goal differential going into Drop Day. They managed to lose to hapless Stoke 4-1 with the final score against them being an own goal (almost as adept as the Prowler Fowler) in the 6th minute of added time. Swansea meanwhile won by the same score over Reading with its last goal scored in the 1st minute of added time. Within about 5 minutes Forest went from a +1 in GD lead and being in the playoffs to -1 and weeping in their ale.
