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.

You will still be able to get them but it will go through by irishlaw2010
an ND-controlled ticket portal (Ticketmaster, Vivid, etc.) so that ND get its cut and can apply price floors in the electronic marketplace.
I think this is just going to create more empty seats in the stadium when tickets you could get for $10-20 in the parking lot (MAC, Rice, etc.) are price-floored at $40-50 and people balk at paying. Eventually, people will stop buying those low-demand games on the primary market too - they already have to some extent. Think about how many games have ND ticket window availability on gameday - unthinkable 20-25 years ago.
