Bowl Over

After all the BCS fracas, Cal didn't manage to win its Bowl Game this evening. Disappointing, but I'm inclined to think everyone just ran out of emotional steam.

I might be more upset, but also tonight 88 people died in a night club fire in Buenos Aires, 31 people died in a burning bus in Pakistan, and the tsunami death toll is currently at least 119,000. And this isn't even counting what's going on in Iraq.

So it's a little hard to get worked up by a football game.

Here's hoping 2005 is a better year than this one has turned out to be.

Edit 1/3/05: (For posterity, all those numbers have unfortunately turned out to be low.)
