First post in almost a month. Yikes! I guess I don't have much to say. Congrats to ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
jennem who got married yesterday...
A thanks to all the well wishers. Spent yesterday in the company of friends watching football - where both home dogs managed to rise up and win their games. Will be going out to dinner with the family tonight...
It's been a pretty decent bowl season this year. I actually kind of like the reminders of the silliness of the BCS, where it's almost like it was in my earlier years. All the games are good, and none of them prove anything. Hence my desire to just return to traditional tie-ins. How anyone watching the Rose and Sugar Bowls can be sure that USC and Utah are any less "Championship" material than Oklahoma and Florida is beyond me. Particularly given the beatings Big XII South powers Oklahoma State and Texas Tech took in their respective bowls.
Watched a bunch. Maryland beating Nevada on the smurf turf. Mardy Gilyard making acrobatic catch after another in a losing Orange Bowl effort for Cincinatti. TCUs great defense in the Poinsettia. Donald Brown's sheer dominance in the International. The tremendous hitting by the Men of Troy's defenders in the Rose. (And their stupendously pretty song girls...) And the brilliant game plan by Utah in the Sugar.
Yeah, the bowls are overdone, silly, and meaningless, but I do still find fun in them.
