Bowl Game Shuts Down

[CajunEXPRESS]

I'm just waiting for him to call me a leftist.that's when ____ gets real.

Well you're a leftist socialist. Own it, wear it. Most leftist prefer a code name progressive. Constantly progressing to meddle in everyone else's lives.

Did you read that from the Drudge Report's Handbook for sounding conservative?

classic - another thread that ends in an argument that nobody knows what the argument is even about

Getting back on topic, I'm somewhat amazed that the bigwigs here in Lafayette haven't put forth an effort to bring a bowl game to Cajun Field. It could be a huge moneymaker for the city and the entire region during what typically is a quiet time (in terms of festivals and events) in Acadiana.

that's an excellent point. I was also thinking that if san diego struggled part of reason could be higher expenses to go there, (although more people would want to go and have more to offer) may be a double edged sword strange too they would announce this after chargers leaving, seems they would want to use the stadium for as many games as possible.

I thought about the Chargers part, too, but San Diego may be holding out hope for a return of the Chargers. With the Raiders' chances of moving to Las Vegas getting slimmer by the day, the Chargers may have to go crawling back to San Diego when (a) Los Angeles fans don't flock to their games and/or (b) Mark Davis tries to move the Raiders to L. A.

The Raiders said they'd kick up their portion of the stadium funding by $650M to a total of $1B to make up for the company that dropped out. I think they are also committed by contract to stay in Oakland another two years.

Cajunmike- I think if bowls are reduced from 40 to 30, it will be bad for us. It would mean 18-20 more G5 teams stay at home during postseason. Possibly 1 or 2 P5 teams would lose out on an annual basis. Bowls are a reward for the fans as well as the universities.

Bowls are and should be a reward for the players. You run stadiums with them in January at 4:30 am?

If we go 7 and 5, we will still be in a bowl if the no. drops to 30.

Why the hate for bowls? No one is required to watch one, and none are more or less important now that only the final four and national championship mean anything at all.

The last time I checked absolutely nobody had their season tickets cancelled for not going to a bowl game. I can tell you, as bad as this season was, it was way better the day we got the NOLA bid, and I had an absolute blast at the NOLA bowl, and at the pre game festivities and I live eight minuets from the French Quarter. The NOLA with Louisiana in it is one of the few instances I fight the traffic to go into there.

So your own experiences should be the only justification for bowl games? That's such a Leftist way to think.

But his experiences are so much important than brutal common sense. That's snowflake territory. That's millennial talk.
