You're not required to watch ANY bowl, are you. Teams get 15 days extra practice, the players get a trip, each school makes "some" money, and fans, if they choose, can go to another game while on a family trip. You guys are sour pusses. Again, I have news for you. If you don't want to watch a bowl, then don't, but don't try to deprive players of a "paid" vacation that doesn't cost the university one cent! The more the merrier.
