Sorry, it has been a difficult few weeks, and especially the last couple and I have not been around here very much. A very close friend and a man to whom I admired greatly, a second father to me, passed away from COVID on Saturday. I have been a bit preoccupied with his family and all that this has entailed. Please forgive the delay and get your picks in quickly! I started a thread for Bowl Mania ...

 

[WIMUSKY]

No apologies needed, Art. I wasn't sure there was going to be more than a couple bowls being played. One of us could of kicked off the thread. So it's our bad ...
Life happens first, this other stuff is immaterial.....

I won't forgive you, Art. Nothing to be sorry for. Forgiveness is not needed, a game is a far lower priority than a life. I am sorry for your loss.

It's too late to pick for the first bowl. It is not too late to pick the rest before they disappear.

I started a thread too. We take care of each other;

Capital One Bowl Mania

Capital One Bowl Mania is opening up for picks a few minutes after "Just finalizing a couple of things. Check back soon!" We only have two entries and the Bowl Season begins tomorrow. That's unless it's another cancelled bowl. It's been that kind of year. :(...

JJ is saying some of his teammates are enjoying the money, but not earning the paychecks. My impression anyway.

JJ in particular and the Watt family in general get it. They are all hardworking, emotional, team players. Oh for the Steelers to trade for JJ and have JJ, TJ, and Derek on the same team ...

Seems like the Watts are good people on and off the field. Especially JJ.....

Why is Derek John Watt not known as DJ Watt?

Don't Call him D.J.: J.J., T.J., Derek? While Watt's middle name is John, do not call him by his initials. "I shot that down when I was about six. I told my mom, 'I just want to be Derek.' I got the whole D.J. from Full House. I got the whole D.W. from Arthur. So I just wanted to go by Derek because it was a lot easier." He said his college coaches tried to bring the nickname back and would say it to get under his skin, but fortunately, it didn't last.

During last night's game Belichick threw a sideline phone to the ground. Which of these is the reason?

Texas Bowl trampled by COVID stampede.

2020 Texas Bowl canceled as COVID-19 outbreak at TCU forces it to pull out vs. Arkansas

The Horned Frogs saw an uptick in coronavirus cases, causing a cancellation two days before kickoff

Rumors - There may be more on the way.

 

[WIMUSKY]

They'll be dropping like flies. Why take a chance with a minor bowl and no fans...

 

[GA_Boater]

The canceled bowls should be lumped into the Toilet Bowl category.

I'm improving! New ranking is 52,707.

 

[sphelps]

This is not going well .. Trask not having a good game at all and what's left of the receivers are dropping passes .. Not having a running game isn't helping much either..

 

[aspeck]

Sam, your team is killing me here! I expected Trask to make a mockery of the OU db’s. Guess I was wrong! Every NFL scout is watching ...

 

[GA_Boater]

With the sound down low while I diddle around, every time I look at the screen it's OU Touchdown.

 

[sphelps]

Very disappointing way to end the season .. OU came ready to play ..
UF just didn’t .. Need new def coordinator...
