Not Happening

Filed under: B(C)S,Football,General Stupidity — Chas @ 11:15 am

Pitt-Penn State in the Fiesta or any of the BCS Bowls.

I hate to even waste a post on it. I’ve read the articles laying out how it could happen. So what?

Yes, it would pack the stadium, but that’s only half the equation. It would be little with the TV ratings. It is a regional game of limited interest. Nationally, it would be something like a Florida-Miami game or perhaps Texas-SMU for the nostalgia hounds.

Even in a bye week, this is a complete waste of time.

Speculating on bowl match-ups is silly in October. Speculating on BCS bowl match-ups in October is dumb.

I want the Pitt-PSU game back as much as anyone — as a home-and-home series. My parents are PSU grads, so the return to that fun at family gatherings is something I would dearly love.

I’m also resigned to the fact that the series won’t restart until sometime after the Zombie King is denied his brains on which to feed, has salt poured into his mouth, and has his eyes and mouth stitched shut to put him at rest.

Until then, skip the time waste.
