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.

From the information I've seen by IM4NDRU
there will be limited numbers (like 20% of capacity) allowed into games. Like last year, students, faculty and donors will get first dibs. I've talked with people in Development and they all say "things are being worked out". I've also talked with retired employees of the University and they tell me they have not received any information. One retired employee I talked with whom I've known for many years told me he didn't ask for a refund on the ticket allotment from last year and just gave that money to the University, hoping that everything would be back to normal this year, but said they know nothing at this point.
