Well obviously I don’t get to change things or a system that doesn’t give half the teams bowl games would already have been shot in the head because it sucks. If you look at the ratings of these bowl games though you see there’s lots of people that think having the 5th ranked team in some random conference play the 6th ranked team in some random conference makes for bad football that nobody bothers to watch. Most of the bowl games get lousy ratings and don’t even happen in front of sold out audiences.

It’s not about changing the game, the game is fine, it’s about changing the post season, which is atrocious and stupid, and losing money. There’s nothing liberal about realizing that the system is flawed. Being smart enough to realize it can be made better is not political.

you can’t fix the problem because you don’t even know what the problem is.

college football is about much, much more than tv ratings. first of all, it’s about college. if you don’t get that, then your entire foundation is flawed.

don’t mess with my alma mater. don’t mess with it’s football program. it doesn’t need people “fixing” it. it’s fine without you.
