Isn't that like the lowest rated (TV ratings) bowl every year?

Man, whatever happened to the (Bridgeport Education) Holiday Bowl?  I knew you when...

Man, we are going to have some good times up there.   Should we have the pre-game party in the Bronx and then the post game downtown?

that mid afternoon, midweek bowl game in the middle of winter in new york sounds just dreadful. what a terrible idea. hopefully we dump this and add a cancun bowl or something when we pick up the pac10 people.

Sad.  Holiday Bowl will always be more prestigious than the Insight.com bowl in my heart, and cain't nobody tell me no different.    :bawl:

QFT.  Will never be able to erase the memory of ass-kicking that Syracuse gave us to put this turd of a bowl game above the Holiday Bowl.  Never.  I would rather go to the Holiday Bowl than the Cotton Bowl.

LOL at playing a bowl game inside of a baseball-only stadium.

My bad, thanks for the update.  You know why I didn't know this?  Because nobody gives a crap about the Insight Bowl.  IMO it's about the same level as the Texas Bowl.

I always thought the Insight bowl should be higher up on the ladder just because of how awesome Mill Street is.

You will get plenty of that in the Pac20 regular season

We can take the 7 line out to the Queens-PAK.

Yeah, I can direct you to the creepiest bar you'll ever visit in your lives right off the 7 train in Queens.

Queens-PAK will be epic.  As will Brooklyn-PAK.  Got a hot spot of EMAWers foaming at the mouth for this one.

Steve_dave, aside from La Guardia, the busiest airport in the US without any non-stop service to and from Europe, there are many other treasures, including Flushing Meadows, the United States Tennis Center, and an amazingly awesome and cheesy Italian restaurant at a Holiday Inn called "The Pines" that this EMAWer has frequented many times.

Please try to expand you horizons and stop killing Queens-PAK dead in its tracks.
