Bridgepoint Education Holiday Bowl Open Thread

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

San Diego a great town, different than 8 Florida destinations or whatever we're up to, and usually had an interesting match-up (I know it's marquis, but I don't want to okay the SEC EVERY year). That old tie in, and the Alamo for two worse Texas bowls and the Gator not necessarily upward moves. Though I at least like the Gator's long history...if only they could move the game.

How on Earth is Jake Locker a top NFL prospect?  I've watched him play about 10 times in his career and I've never seen him have a good game passing.

IMO this Nebraska team will be much worse next year. They can potentially lose quite a bit to the NFL.  The O looks absolutely horrendous.   This is the same washington team that gave up 28 to WSU.

But the two best games since Sunday night have been while you were gone, so if this game turns dull, I'm going to have to ask you to leave.

<br>(though I was amused by the one thread wondering where your bombs were, and it was theorized you weren't around because you were posting after 3 am...isn't it nice when you're noticed?)

What post was that? I am now feeling like I am under watch by the Gestapo.

 

edit: I was listening and watching the games on ESPN Radio and the NC vs Tenn game on TV. I needed the break from the explosion of stupidity that plagued the MGoBoard.

It's a thankless job, and I can turn myself into a villain without the extra help. Not that they'd want me anyway. I'd never delete any boobie pics. But then I'm emotionally 12. (I take my football seriously, but not much else). Besides, you'd probably have to bring more substantial content than I do (and not snicker at so many charts). Open Threads are my niche, I know what I'm good at, and my limitations.

Formerlyanonymous and Misopogon do great jobs at it, and have the requisite respect from everyone, and temperament for it. I kid them sometimes, because I have a who watches the watchmen mentality, but they really do a thankless job for free. At least Brian gets a buck or two for putting up with us morons.

This spread was a trap. Nebraska coming off losing their last title shot in their old conference (to their old rival), after losing their revenge game to Texas too, gets bumped to a lesser bowl vs. a team they've already played (and is looking for payback for the throttling they received), just had UP v. DOWN written all over it. The Corny ones can still win, but they were never covering.

I am no longer feeling worried about playing Nebraska...o wait...another transition year...yes I am, along with ND, Western Michigan, and the Saint Mary's School of the Blind.

I think I am good for now. I don't know why a lot of people concentrate so much of their fustration on me. I only post an item that take 4 inches up on their screen. Some people take message boards much too seriously. It is rather sad. I only go after the anti-intellectuals and CC threads. I don't understand why people have grown so angry with me. I don't coach defense or bump uglies with their mothers.

THAT'S what i've been doing wrong.
<br>
<br>And don't worry, I'm still in the bowl game/mobile response part of my posting. I get online to do something else, or just open up the actual page at slower times and go back and plus all the great posts I neglect during game action.

I figure whoever negged me is now closer to not bring able to post than I am, and I'm ok with that. I'd give a lot of points if it meant some others couldn't post.
<br>
<br>Well, that, and the fear it strikes into the hearts of men.

Well it is 2am and I am intoxicated by a number of things. I absolutely hate PSU and hope they die a fiery death. Pelini has been exposed to be a chump by a far inferior team tonight. it shows how weak the Big 12 was this year and how much of a chance we have at beating them like red headed step children next year.
