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 am, thanks, but I plan on withdrawing by BabaGhanouj
from my previous active participation. I just don't have the time anymore. Something needed to take a hit. It's been about 12 years since I joined to support and follow Madison Cable's progress. Who knew I'd still be around but for the great people on McGraw's Bench (and beyond).
I like to think I helped make the Bench a more entertaining, informative, and fun place. You need to carry-on now. I need to play more sports rather than follow them, but I'll still be reading. Excited about soccer next year! (among other things)
A great time to be Irish!
