Boycotting the Bowls
by Dave Z on Jan.01, 2010, under Sports
Alright, so I’ve decided that I’m going to completely boycott all the bowl games, with the exception of any that my pitiful Hurricanes are playing in (kind of wish I boycotted that spanking UW gave us). I think it’s just gotten to the point where it’s obvious to everyone that the BCS doesn’t work and that we need a playoff in college football. The college football fans overwhelmingly agree with this, but the men in power don’t seem to care because they’re making a lot of money with the current system.
All the bitching and moaning by fans or the media just won’t change this, so I figure I ought to do the only thing I can do and stop supporting this travesty by continuing to watch the games. I’m sure I’ll miss out on a lot of excellent football, but I decided that it’d be hypocritical to complain about the system and then support it 100% by watching all the games religiously as I’ve done year in and year out. Complaining and continuing to support the broken system won’t help change things. Me personally not watching won’t, either but at least I will be doing the right thing.
:bcs, bowl games, college football, fbs, Football, ncaa football, playoffs
