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.

US Soccer is just like that club in your town that you hate by Irishlawyer
Run by guys who just want to protect their power and at the expense of anyone and everything else. Sunil is up for re-election in 2018. Had he waited to shitcan JK until after the March qualifiers, that decision would be fresh in people's minds when we got to the election. Instead, he sacks JK now, replaces him with a "safe" replacement that almost no one can say is a "bad" choice (although few would say it is a "good" or "great" choice) and all of the sadsacks on the board sit back and no one challenges the election. Brilliant move... for him. For US Soccer? Not so much.
