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.

Ouch! I would not have guessed Atleti/Barca would go further by Irish2003
Carletto did just mention we'd have to beat them to win it all anyway, but I would have preferred a semis, or of course Finals match up.
-Atleti-Dortmund should be a good one, but that madman will pull one out.
-Ditto Bayern-Arsenal, although wouldn't mind Arteta finally breaking through.
-Barca is of course the blood rival, but still respect them more as a program than the Bank of Qatar, their players seem somewhat likable even if Xavi, and hopefully this diverts them and Atleti from La Liga
-I'd actually feel pretty good about a healthy Madrid, but the injuries have been brutal. That said, when the CL anthem comes on....
Aleti over Barca; Citeh over Bayern; Citeh over Atleti. Hope I'm wrong!
