I was responding to a question about why I would watch the Flames game tonight.

And you go off on me.

I never said people didn't have vested interest in the bowl games. I was speaking for myself. I did say earlier there are a lot more people out there like me though. For what its worth.

Oh, and my opinion on NHL hockey vs NCAA football has EVERYTHING to do with why I will watch the Flames play every game this year and why I won't watch a single bowl game until the 8th (if I even watch that one).

Unreal.
My point is that you still watch a hockey game that has almost no impact on deciding the eventual championship, but you boycott all the bowls for that very reason.

As I said in my last post, that's BS anyways. Bowl performance has a huge impact on pre-season rankings for the coming season and has a major impact on deciding the national champion (for better or worse).

Either way, I don't think NCAA football should cater their bowl/playoff system to people who can't simply enjoy two excellent teams playing just because it's not for a championship. I bet you watched every minute of that meaningless Panthers/Giants game two weeks ago though.
