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.

I was bummed to see 2015 Butler vs 2013 Louisville. by revressbo
I was at both. I don’t think I voted; I couldn’t choose. I think the 2013 Louisville game was the best ND sporting event I attended as a student, just barely edging 2012 Stanford football (HM to 2011 BC hockey). I think, while the Butler game was a really good game, too, it wasn’t on the level of the Louisville game. But the NDN tournament is “biggest win” so it was probably fair that Butler advanced over Louisville and prob will over USF; NCAA tournament wins generally are just bigger than regular season.
The lone exception, of course, is the game that’s gonna end up winning this NDN tournament, due to its sheer colossal magnitude.
