2012-13 Begins

Well, I'm back from Vegas and, no, I didn't win any money.  But I had a blast and I encourage you to look at pictures of our trip - especially the Red Rock Canyon ones - on Ana, Matt, and Pat's Facebook pages.

People have been clamoring for blog posts, so as I sit here in my living room watching a Shipping Wars marathon before today's bowl games, I will open this year's running commentary. Yesterday, Baylor and Cincinnati both won their games.  You will notice we have an abbreviated schedule this year as there were vociferous complaints that last year's contest featured too many games.  So, hey, I can be reasoned with.  There are 21 games for us to choose this year.  Let the best gambler win.

And those gamblers appear to include two pets this year.  Well, that's what happens when you make a joke on the official entry form and people read the joke.  They take advantage of it.  So the California contingent has entered Olive and Alex into the contest.  Could there be a feline winner for the first time in bowl history? Meow.


As the Commissioner and defending champion, I welcome you to this year's contest.  Coming up, this year's first game previews....
