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.

Men’s swimming: 10th in NCAAs!!! by montroy28
Mega kudos to the men’s swimmers. First ever team top ten in NCAAs. What a fucking effort this team gave.
Chris Guiliano, a junior, simply destroyed several Notre Dame standards. Sophomore Tommy Janton and graduate student Abdelrahman Elaraby were also critical contributors to this placement.
A long, long damn time ago we dreamed of having a single swimmer at the NCAAs. For the team to finish in the top ten is mind blowing. Sincerest congratulations to Coach Lindauer and the men’s team on this simply stunning achievement!
