re: ESPN Sees huge ratings for the New Years Six Bowls

The Rose Bowl is outrageously overrated. No one gives a shite about the venue when watching a game on tv. It's all about who is playing.

I don't even have to look but I'd venture to say the Rose Bowl has had the best games in its history compared to the other bowls - just from memory.

And...

"No one gives a shite about the venue." - seriously dude, that's like saying...no one gives a shite about Star Wars (because you don't like Star Wars.)

Every Rose Bowl I've watched over the years...they always talk about the venue, the setting, the Rose Parade, how excited the players are to be playing there and experiencing the Rose experience, which is a week long event. It's college football's version of the Super Bowl to the players and fans...who pay exorbitant amounts - always the top ticket draw to be there. They aren't paying that money just to experience the Cotton or Sugar Bowl..."sun setting over the...the...the...Dome."
