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.

They dominated seven Big 10 schools in both men & women! by Domerduck
In the xcountry regionals, ND beat Wisconsin (2nd both men & women), Michigan (3rd in both), MSU (4th in both), tOSU (6th women/12th men), Indiana (6th men, 8th women), and Purdue (9th in both). So with the men winning the ACC they should be one of the favorites in the finals. The women's time were much better than when they got 5th in the ACC championship. I know they are different courses and the race was probably run differently, but ND's times would have given them the ACC championship as they would have had 1,2,5,7, & 13 and NC State (who won) would have had 3,4,6,12, & 27. I do think NC State probabbly is the class of the ACC, but ND is probably the second best team as the ACC race was not so good for our women.
Good luck to both teams in the finals.
