The holidays are supposed to be about being appreciative for the things you have and the people you love. Sometimes I very much do not love sports, though. Wednesday was one of those nights. It started with the basketball team getting run off the court in the Braggin’ Rights game... But I’ll leave that one for the basketball coverage. It continued with the frustrating loss by the football team in the Armed Forces Bowl.
That was a game I won’t soon forget. The storylines were endless. From the injuries and the opt-outs to the new starting quarterback, this had the makings of an intriguing game from the start.
