In reply to Andrew.

I’m actually really surprised there isn’t a bowl in Fresno or Bakersfield yet. The ConAgra Bowl or some such nonsense.

Interesting take, and on relative terms I can get on board with that. I can get on board with just about anything as it relates to the BCS, though. You could tell me they were going to draw names out of Bobby Bowden’s straw hat and play an 8-team playoff and I’d still think that’s a better system than what’s in place now.

I would take a different approach to the BCS Championship… It was not the only bowl that mattered. It was just one of, what, 40, (60, 80? I lost count somewhere around the San Diego County Credit Unions Bowl) bowl games that all mattered equally. Last night’s game merely gave one very good team a mythical national championship that matters not one bit more than Central Michigan’s win the night before in whatever godforsaken bowl game that was (which makes me think the Godforsaken Bowl should be the next bowl game… They could play it in Fresno).

Some things — the BCS, Rick Reilly, the Shamwow guy, Uggs — deserve constant ridicule.
