Bowl Season


reading the sports section today they have two whole pages dedicated to the college bowl games.  there are 8 bowls named after locations , Texas has 3 , Dallas , Texas and Alamo .there is also the  New Mexico , Las Vegas , New Orleans ,Hawaii and the Idaho Potato .  It’s a stretch but there is also the Buffalo Wild Wings bowl.

there is the Pinstripe Bowl but I don’t know of any football teams that wear pinstripes. There is the Armed Forces and Military bowl. It’s hard for me to believe that they could lose any game if they took it seriously.

food seems to be popular with bowl names. The Little Caesars , Chick-fil-A , Beef ‘ O ‘ Brady’s , Sugar , Orange and the fight Hunger bowl . hmmm, that seems like a good cause .

the Poinsettia , Belk ( Whatever the hell that is ) , Russell Athletic , Music City , Holiday , AdvoCare V100 , Sun , Liberty , Capitol One , Outback , Fiesta , Compass and Go-daddy Bowl.

and of course there are still the ones I remember when I was a kid , The Rose , Cotton , Gator along with the above mentioned Sugar and Orange bowl . 

This was how it use to be , back when I was actually excited about college football . before I realized there were even 70 colleges in the country , which is how many teams are playing in bowl games this season.

growing up it was Texas , Notra Dame , Alabama , Oklahoma , Nebraska , Ohio State , Michigan , USC , Syracuse and RPI ( now RPI never actually went to a bowl game but to me when I was little they were as big as any of the other teams.)  . now it's everything but the toilet bowl. where most of these teams today belong.

O , by the way , there is also the BCS Championship Game . All in all , I probably won't watch a single one of them . I long for the days when life was simpler.
