**Ladies and Gentlemen...it's the FR College Football 2007-08 Bowl Games Thread**

Posted on 12/19/2007 1:19:19 PM PST by GOP_Raider

It's the most wonderful time of the year...With my Utes winning bowl games and BYU losing so I'll be of good cheer...it's the most wonderful time of the year...

--Ow! Tomatoes hurt you know. Sheesh...

During the regular season, I would normally do my fancy and mildly humorous graphical elements and those of you who would like me to feature their school's games, I would oblige. However, since we've got miles to go before we sleep, I'll re-ping the list as we go along and include said graphics. Sound like a deal? Excellent.

Tomorrow the fun will begin. (For me, at least). :)

I guess since I’ve been working 2nd or 3rd shift most of my adult life the concept of getting up that “early” is foreign to me.

Dang, I haven’t seen any of the hockey game today. Has it been a good game?

Now, the CF threads have been riveting, mostly, but I'd like to suggest more cheerleader pics in 08.

Oh, I think I could arrange that. :)

When I was about 26 or so I worked from 1PM to 10PM. I hated it then but I would not mind it now.

H****as it been a good game?****

Not bad. Not real pretty. The ice gets kinda snowy so that makes things difficult. Of course the best thing about hockey? NO MARCHING BANDS. LOL!

I understand. I'm cautiously optimistic about Georgia's chances in the Sugar.

As I mentioned in todays ping of the list, I think UGA's Sugar Ray Leonard, and Hawaii is Roberto Duran. Hopefully Hawaii doesn't quit in midstream.

Oh, man rough first half for TTU. Pretty obvious defensive breakdown on UVA’s big TD run.

But was Georgia also soundly defeated by TN, so even the bulldogs have a few “weak spots”. We will see.

This is one of the reasons, you know, that we take so much interest in the trivial matters of politics and affairs of state around here at FR - the outcome in the end has more to do with the important matters of how we and our families live, and enjoy, life in the here and now than most people would think. If there were no sports, or music, or cooking, or house-building, or whatever else floats your particular boat, are we sure it would really even matter?

I concur. Thomas Sowell once said that "if you can't find the humor in politics, you'll go stark raving mad". Look at the DUmmies I know. They put on a really good facade about being footloose and fancy free, but they're absolutely miserable and have been for a while.

It's also a big reason why I jumped at the chance to take over the College Football Ping List. Now, I may come off as somewhat of a wise ass, but if I can get interaction from all of you with my graphics or my snide little remarks about each game...well, then it's all worth it.

Thanks for participating and reading the threads and hopefully it's as fun for me as it was for all of you.

I am beginning to wonder if either Michigan or Florida knows how to play defense.

Yes, BUT, TN beat them early on. GA really got it together late in the yr.
