Figure the game will be over by the end of the 1st quarter, so might as well get started.

For being a fanbase so adamantly opposed to advertising in Michigan Stadium, we're sure doing a good job of mentioning bowl sponsorship in threads on this site.

Makes my impulse buying and football watching much more efficient. I just secured a 30-year fixed at 5.1% over on the Franklin American Mortgage thread (only cost me 2 points!). Hoping to earn an Associates degree over here. Maybe in medical billing. CAD design, perhaps.  Dunno. Maybe I'll wait till 3rd quarter to declare my major.

confidence pick, with Nebraska over UW. Unfortunately I forgot about the dang bracket until it was locked and all my picks were in order. Ugh. Now I know why I never gamble, I feel like Sisyphus.

I'll miss the cgi whales flopping out of the ocean like dolphins with rocket boosters attached to their behinds during the Pacific Life commercials. 

Please tell me I am not an army of one on this?

very kind to chewing gum.  

In all seriousness, he and Carl were asses when Texas beat them last year. Tough loss, but suck it up.  They were asses again when they were called for something like 15 penalties against A&M early this year.  Again, tough loss, but when the Chancellor of your university calls you out publicly, you've crossed the line. The incident with Martinez on the sideline in that same game is another one that sticks out ... guy just strikes me as a hot-headed ass.

You know, if you have ESPN, odds are you have ESPN2. If you wanted to see it, with all your promotion of it ESPN, we'd have switched. Because I'm sure your bowl audience is the same. Stop shoving it down our throats.

<br>Of course, this probably means start the Stanford coach to Michigan rumors. I don't know if it's for women's basketball, or men's basketball, or football.

But this MAY be the last time I'll ever root for the Children of the Corn. (I'd say the first, but I actually used to like them vs. the Miami's, FSU's, Oklahoma's of the world, before they sold their soul to stop losing bowl games).
