Now For Something Entirely Different - C. Loving

Americans on the planet give a rat's ass about this or they are totally bored by it. It is American football which is slow and played by giants that are going to be fat. Texas has had a couple of heroes.

Earl Campbell who can't walk anymore. Ricky Williams turned into a druggie strange person. The old school guys were diffenrent. Jerry Seismore who is a sports commentator who can't talk is a good guy. Ernie Koy was a good fellow. Bill Bradley was ok and then there was James Street who was a real estate guy. They all made a lot of money, or some of them did. I actually watched most of these games and talk about a great way to waste time. Meaningless mindless watching of television of sports is better than commercial television?

THE BOWL TEAMS
Poinsetta...............N.Ill 7 / TCU 37 "Old SWC win"

Orange Louisville vs Wake Forest
Sugar Notradame (Touchdown Jesus is back) vs LSU (Hold that Tigre)
GMAC Ohio vs S. Miss
International W. Mich vs Cinc.
BCS Championship OHIO STATE vs FLORIDA

OK; I looked at it again. There are 32 Bowl games. That is bracket the first bracket of 32 Bowl games. Then it turns to 16 Bowl games, then eight, and four and two, and the championship.

From what I could count there are 24 teams with 10 wins or better: BYU 11-2, TCU.11-2 Ark10-4, Hawaii11-2, Cal 10-3, Wisc 12-2, Mich 11-2, Rutgers11-2, Hou 10-4, Auburn 11-2, WVa 11-2, USC11-2, BC10-3, VaTech10-3,Texas10-3,Boise St 13-0, OU11-3, Fla 12-1, Ohio St 12-0, Louis12-1, Wake 11-3, ND10-2, LSU 10-2,

So with the first round you get rid of the stinky bowls like the Champs, Texas, Motor City, Hawaii, Papa John, New Orleans, Las Vegas. and so forth. Second round you play the big ones again and so forth and end up with Orange, Sugar, Rose, Cotton, Gator, Fiesta, Alamo, Sun. The last game is in Iowa some place... Ames or some such in the snow.

Now then Ragaroos that is anal retention to the max. Iraq War, Sudan, Somalia, the government in D.C. no, no, no what is really important is this stuff. Or World Cup Soccer if you are from Estonia or Bali. Tour du France if you are French. Yea but here in the EEUU it is football not futbol.
