Gisei's Handy Guide to *REAL* Bowl Games
Dec. 23rd, 2007 01:03 pmThis post has no relation to anything of any real importance. However, it does touch on one of my really minor pet peeves, one which a headline on Yahoo! news just reminded me of.
It has come to my attention in the past few years that there are ridiculous numbers of "bowl games" in existence. This is no doubt a clever marketing ploy on someone's part. However, if you are confused as to what exactly is a real bowl game, remember this handy fact: Real bowls are always named after agricultural products. Thus, Rose, Sugar, Cotton, and Orange are real bowls. Fiesta, Hula, Music, Amalgamated Plastics and whatever else are not.
