And let's be real: if you don't think bowls are already participation trophies then I'm not sure what to tell you.

Let's make our own bowl game since we didn't earn one is a whole different level of pathetic.

But they DID earn one. They crossed the 6 win threshold. What did Arkansas State or Georgia Southern do that earned us a bowl that ULM didn't do?

Honestly I think it's more genuine to have college athletic directors setting up postseason games instead of some random suits in Montgomery or Mobile or Tuscon.

Say what you want, but we are bowl eligible and I’ll happily take another home game, practices, and a game for the Seniors with a chance to have a winning season.

They did NOT earn a bowl game. They will not be chosen. 6-6 doesn't entitle you to jack ****. IMO bowl teams should have winning records - and bowls should be eliminated to that effect.

OK cool.

So if Karl Benson and the MAC commissioner had signed a contract with some random city in the preseason, we'd have one more bowl tie-in. Would they have earned it then?

I'll help you: The answer is "yes".

Literally the only reason ULM is sitting at home is because we have 5 tie-ins instead of 6.

Why are you so mad anyway?

It’s Winston. Of course that’s what he thinks. Blah,blah,blah.

One more step toward every team being in a bowl wouldn't be good - so no.

Participation trophies are a construct of older generations not a concept created by millenials, same with 6-6 bowl games. Thats why it is hypocritical, its complaining about policies instituted by your own generation claiming that it was somehow initiated by your children.

I'm not sure you understand the definition of hypocrite. I do agree that the bowl system is bull**** - I just think the faux bowl game ULM wants to create is even more bull****. By the way - participation trophies are NOT a construct of my generation. Gen X kids were raised right. After that . . .

Im not gonna debate this with you cause as is the norm you are unwilling to see any fault in you or your cohorts choices... shocking. And yea hypocrite is someone that complains about the choices of others while being implicit in the same choices. One thing though, im a millenial i was raised by baby boomers, while some millenials were raised by gen x as many or more were raised by boomers and gen xers actually were often raised by silent gen. But im sure you will insist you are right ignoring inconvenient truths or facts

Let me blow your mind. 90% of bowls don't matter and your little "participation trophy" extends to them also.

You say bowls don't matter yet you are posting about them. Why bother?

Provided this option is only allowed for bowl eligible teams I see nothing wrong with it
