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.

these guys are under major pressure to get things re-started. This (and basketball) are the cash cows that support so many other programs. The LSU baseball coach (former ND coach, Manieri I think his name is) said today that he feels that 100 college baseball programs will be gone if football and basketball don't re-start.

These guys are in scramble mode and are hoping that the doctors working on this come up with some kind of treatment so that they can restart without worrying as much. But they are under tremendous pressure to re-start. Of course there are safer ways to do it, but there is no completely "safe" in this scenario.
