Friends and readers, I return to you with a new burst of energy and focus. I'm not sure whether to attribute it to the therapeutic nature of a well-deserved vacation, or rather to the fact that my college bowl pickings are becoming somewhat more respectable (I'm currently 10-7, including today's bowl games). Regardless, I have new resolve for the future of this project, as well as a slew of new ideas, so stay tuned and I promise you'll be impressed.
In other news, since the New Year is approaching quickly, I have decided to trash the final comic in the Christmas series. I'll pick it up again next year - just pretend it's like an unfinished symphony.
Thirdly, I would like to extend congratulations to our 2008 California Golden Bears, as well as to the other Pac-10 Conference schools competing in bowls this postseason (Arizona, Oregon, Oregon St., and USC). After Oregon's victory over Oklahoma St. in today's Pacific Life Holiday Bowl, the Pac-10 is 3-0 with only USC and the team that beat USC (Oregon St.) left to play - and I do not foresee them losing. Indeed a very good season for the conference, despite including the one team in the nation that failed to win a single game (Washington), and another team that has just closed the book on its seventh consecutive losing season (Stanford, of course).
Lastly, I shall introduce tomorrow's bowl games and my picks:
- the Armed Forces Bowl: Houston vs. Air Force (my pick: Houston)
- the Sun Bowl: Oregon St. vs. Pittsburgh (my pick: Oregon St.)
- the Music City Bowl: Boston College vs. Vanderbilt (my pick: Boston College)
- the Insight Bowl: Kansas vs. Minnesota (my pick: Minnesota)
- the Chick-fil-A Bowl: LSU vs. Georgia Tech (my pick: Georgia Tech)
