I heard it mentioned one time on KSR.

Be surprised if he fires anyone after 7-5 Gator Bowl season. Especially his guy.
Randall Cobb with the Snow Angel on the Frozen Tundra. :football::100points:
Limit my UK basketball conversations with a select few. Most of whom are on here. There's just way too many idiots out there. Walking Rafturds if you will.
Anyone who thought 40-0 needs to be eliminated from your UK basketball conversation list.

This has been cracking me up today. :joy:
He’s not alone in his waning interest. This season, ratings for professional football are down 27 percent across all of the major networks: ESPN, Fox, NBC and CBS, according Forbes. The decline in the ratings underscores a bigger truth that no one wants to face: Nothing lasts forever. And that includes the popularity of professional football, which now may be experiencing the slow, inevitable crumble of a Roman-style empire.
I know it has become a trope around here at this point, but I actually was way out front on this one. To the point of being the butt of jokes about it for years as the NFL continued to put up record profits and ratings. The NFL's high water mark has been reached. Now the inevitable falling back to the pack has begun.
The real damage will come with the next round of media rights negotiations. I think the NBA and MLB have much more sustainable media models. Soccer is also more suited for streaming. In fact, it may have the best model for a paid, subscription streaming service. The NFL isn't built for streaming of a particular team or channel dedicated to games. People aren't going to fork over $10/month to watch 3 or 4 games.
This is compounded by the Fantasy Football mentality that has diluted the average fan's attachment to a particular team. Fans care much more about their fantasy team than any one franchise and they don't need to actually watch the games to consume the stats for their fantasy teams.

^ Was going to post something in here a few days ago about ESPN losing almost 1.2 million customers in the last few months.
ESPN and ESPN2 were down the most as far as viewing went. News, U and SECN were flat. Those channels don't have the opinion shows or NFL all the time.

Fantasy football is exactly what piqued my interest in NFL back in 99 and exactly what caused me to have total disinterest in the NFL about 5 years later. I wound up only caring about the players on my team as opposed to enjoying NFL or cheering for a team.
I think NFL Redzone has more to do with the decline in ratings than a drop of popularity. Wonder what stats on its buy rates are as compared to drops in ratings for the others.
Just makes a 3-4 hour window of watching a whole game impossible after getting rapid fire action all day on sundays.

*See ya in Jacksonville
*Also not referring to this game as anything other than the "Gator Bowl" so get pumped Taxslayer.

If you had told me this team was going to the Gator Bowl as I sat through that So Miss game with my daughter asking why kept letting the other team score I would have smacked you in the face.
Thankfully that never came up.

Unless it's UK, rooting against UofL, or a Big Boy matchup (Title or now playoff) Bowls suck, TS.
If it weren't for gambol, I wouldn't watch a second of them aside from ^, and likely still won't.

It's amazing how the regular season of cfb can be so great, and the postseason be equally terrible.
The best Bowl gambling is to get into a bowl pick em pool. There's 60 some bowls. You pick the winners straight up and assign confidence to each pick; 1 for the least confident, 63 or whatever to Alabama against Washington. Winner has the highest cumulative total. Bout a $100 each entry. Tie breaker is score/points of the two national semi's.
The non-playoff bowls are the college football equivalent of the NIT.
They're exhibitions that are only important to the fans of the schools playing in them.

No, the best bowl gambling is to have a bookie or online wagering account. You bet whatever you want to, on any/every game of your choice -- giving yourself a fun & vested interest and making any game you want interesting.
This goes for every sport. Pools can be fun, I guess, but they're mostly for pussies who don't actually gambol.
the best college basketball gambol is filling out a tournament bracket lol, you just pick your bracket and pay your entry ($25) and then whoever gets the most points wins the pot i do it every year and sometimes I do 2 or 3 of them to make it even more fun but my wife has won it 6 year in a row so idk
I don't mind bowl games. In fact, I kinda like them.
Cut all of the bowls before the Military Bowl on that list, replace the Arizona Bowl with the Hawaii Bowl or Poinsettia Bowl and take the two best teams from the ones that were cut. Never happen, but that would make the bowl season extry dope.
If you can find a reason to ***** about free football all day long during the shittiest weather weeks of the year, good for you. I'll just kick back, gambol, drink beer and eat some gameday food. WTF? Get f*cking real. The bowl season around NYE/NYD is f*cking great.
Wedding in Cincy this year for NYE.
Fly in Friday, party with friends in wedding, likely get some casina time.
Saturday get things started with Cats in the morning, football all day, wedding at night.
Sunday drive down to BG to see family, fly back to Boston Monday night.
GREAT WEEKEND [cheers]

Love watching the bowl games. Good to see how conferences match up with each other. Also seems like a major party of the whole holiday equation.
Any of you frequent travelballs @anthonys735 @ukguy78 @B.B.d.K. @LadyCat92 have suggestions for solid luggage?
Parents offering to buy us "nice" luggage this year and I'm trying to find decent deals online buy so hard to gauge quality.
TIA wildcat friends

NYE weddings have come out of nowhere in the last few years. I welcome them, to be honest. A lot of NYE "going out" plans never catch up to the hype, but a solid wedding reception with some besties is something to look forward to.
Bowl games seem like the perfect backdrop for bourbon and masturbating tbh. Not sure I get the hate.
Parents got jaime the hard case Tumi and I'm not a fan. I've been sporting the same Victorinox luggage for 10+ years and don't plan on changing.
