Here's the thing I just can't wrap my head around:

HOW IN THE NAME OF HOLY MOTHRA CAN BOSTOM COLLEGE EVEN BEGIN TO HOPE TO COMPETE WHEN THEY FOOTBALL IN THE HOT AND HUMID CONDITIONS OF FLORIDA?!!? I MEAN, WHAT IF THEY HAD TO PLAY FLORIDA STATE, OR MIAMI, OR PLAY IN A BOWL GAME IN FLORIDA?!!? HOW CAN THEY POSSIBLY HOPE TO EVER STAND THE WEATHER CONDITIONS THERE?!!? SOME OF THOSE GUYS HAVE NEVER EVEN BEEN SOUTH OF LIKE VIRGINIA!!!





Just some Monday ponderings.

My final conclusion wuz......

The sports media needed something to hype the game. There's nothing personnel wise, injury wise, coaching wise, program wise, extracurricular wise, that they could come up with. So they hyped the WEATHER. That was what they chose to make people tune in to see if BC could actually win or make it a game.

Viewership was sky high so I guess they got what they wanted.

I guess the sports media discounted the FACTS.

Ignore the facts, it's the narrative that's important. Hype your game, attract viewers, profit. I'd wager the weather crap probably brought 200K viewers or so more than they would otherwise have. Mission accomplished.

Ratings were indeed huge.

But then again, the Romans had very little trouble filling the arena when they would book unarmed Christians to fight hungry lions, either. People love a good massacre.

And summer ain’t even over yet here. Today, high

80s and humid.

Should finally end this weekend. Mid 70s, 50s at night.
