Topic: BOWLING SEASON

Let the games begin. The college football bowl games commence today. 34 games between now and Jan. 8th. I'm going to the Emerald Bowl at AT&T Park in San Francisco next Sat. evening with Cal facing Miami, can't wait as it's one wild party. Anybody else going to a game to support your team? I realize we had the prediction thread, but now that the dust has settled and the cream has risen to the top feel free to chime in on your favorites.

                                                                                         Go Buckeyes & Go Bears,

Re: BOWLING SEASON

Alrighty then, it's game day for the Cal Bears @ The Emerald Bowl @ AT&T Park in SF. I've been waiting for I think 8 years since this bowl started to see the home boys play in it and as luck would have it I'm sick as a dog. I'm poppin' and swillin' every known cold remedy to drag my butt out there, ain't nothin' gonna stop me, I'll be sick tomorrow. GO BEARS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

                                                                                             Happy New Year,

                                                                                             J Dawg

P.S. Oh yeah, 30% chance it'll rain too. If it wasn't for bad luck, I'd have no luck at all.

Re: BOWLING SEASON

Well it wasn't pretty, but the Bears prevailed. Being in the Bay Area there were about 500 Cal fans to 1 Miami fan, pretty overwhelming and loud for the home team. When I think of Miami I think of beautiful people strolling around South Beach, obviously they're not 'Cane fans. As we walked out we were halted at the curb as two secret service vehicles whisked someone out of the stadium tunnel. I didn't think Dubya or Deadeye Cheney had any interest in this game and assumed it was probably House Speaker Nancy Pelosi who lives in SF or possibly Diane Feinstein that turned out for the game, our tax dollars in action.

Re: BOWLING SEASON

The Oregon Ducks upset OSU, PAC 10 3-0 with 2 more teams yet to play. Some day the rest of the conference might get some respect other than the University of Spoiled Children. 5 games today 12/31 and 5 more manana.

                                                                                                  Happy New Year,

Re: BOWLING SEASON

Well it's a new year, but the same results, USC hammers another Rose Bowl opponent. That makes it a clean sweep for the PAC 10 conference 5-0. The Sooners & Gators can thank Oregon State for tripping up SC so neither of them had to encounter them in the BCS Championship game. I doubt anybody out there could stop these guys at this point. Maybe someday we'll have a playoff format to settle these what if's once and for all.

                                                                                              GO BUCKEYES!!!!!!!!!!

Re: BOWLING SEASON

OK sports fans let's throw some fuel on the "playoff" fire. Last night Utah proved the need for a playoff system by dominating 'Bama from start to finish, a team who sat at #1 for 5 weeks. I know some will say they don't play in a tough conference, but they faced Michigan (not too formidable this year), TCU, BYU, as well as beating Oregon St., the only team to beat USC (who feel they deserve a piece of the championship). Florida & Oklahoma are powerhouse programs, but neither are perfect, Utah is and I feel they deserve a piece of the title for their effort. At the very least they deserve to be the clear cut #2 when it's all said and done. Unfortunately the BCS computer has no heart or conscience.

                                                                                                 GO BUCKEYES!!!!!!!!

PS I know people are reading this stuff, somebody must have a comment on the outcome of this season....................or not, whatever. College ball rules.

Re: BOWLING SEASON

Dawgy...you feeling like a slow footed DB with man to man and no safety to cover your arse lol....yeah, I been watching the games when I can...I read Saban lips last night, as he was talkng into his headset...."LISTEN UP YOU S.O.B. WERE GETTING OUR BUTTS SPANKED ON NATIONAL TELEVISION, IF YOU DONT STOP THE BLEEDING, I'M GOING TO TAKE MY BALL AND GO HOME, JUST LIKE I DID IN MIAMI, ARE YOU HEARING ME NOW!!!"....I loved the panic all over that prima donnas face smile....I cant wait to see them Okies knock the snot out of Urban (my poo dont stink) Meyer....I say Oklahoma vs Utah at a neutral site for the BIG TROPHY...a neutral place would be Pac Bell Park, cuz I'd pay a kings randsom for that ticket in my back yard...there Bubba, now you got an over opinionated, old bald guy with a nasty attitude...think I'll head out to the garage and hit the speed bag and get out my frustrations....NO!!!!...I almost forgot, I'd probably get hurt...AGAIN!!

Re: BOWLING SEASON

I hear ya Homes, but not at AT&T Park(formerly known as Pac Bell). As much as I love going to those Emerald Bowl games there it's a baseball shrine not well suited for pigskin. You can't even seat 50,000 butts in there either, not wothy of a championship matchup.

                                                                                             GO BUCKEYES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Re: BOWLING SEASON

Well it didn't turn out the way us Buckeye fans hoped, but that was the most exciting game of the bowl season. I'm sure the Longhorns will cry we're #1, but I still give Utah more credit for man handling 'Bama. Sorry Texas, maybe ya'll agree we need a playoff format, ya think? I gotta go get my blood pressure under control, WHEW!!!!

Re: BOWLING SEASON

Last minute stuff is always a nerve wracker.  I'm a Gators fan yet I still think the college system is just ridiculous.

Re: BOWLING SEASON

Not to pile on Dawg but I had to root for those whiners down south, after all they represent the Big 12. If this year doesn't bring an uproar from all of college football for a playoff then I'm guessing it will never happen. I agree Utah made a statement. I thought last nights game was pretty unempressive except for the Buck's running back. We'll see come Thursday whether the Sooners can impress the country. A win by a couple of points won't.

Re: BOWLING SEASON

I only watched the end of the game...I cant believe McCoy threw 59 passes!!..that has to be some kind of record....and a shout out to Big JJ, I dont dislike your team , just your coach wink
