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.

Irish Women 4th in NCAA's. Oliva Markezich Takes 3rd. Great. by dillon77
Her sister Andrea, a grad transfer, takes 25th (in point scoring finish) and
Erin Strzecki is right behind her in 26th The Markezich sisters and Erin all are All-American (top 40 are designated AA's).
Olivia ran the 6000 meters in 19:10, 15 seconds behind winner Parker Valby of Florida. She finished ahead of NC State's Katelyn Touhy, who like Olivia, is an XC and track standout. She led NC State to a third straight championship, followed by Northern Arizona, Oklahoma State and the Irish. By the way, NC State won by a single point, 123-124, and did so despite their #2 runner being on crutches and not racing. That's depth.
