The Chicago Cubs are looking to host a Bowl Game in Wrigley Field

[MikeJackets]

The Chicago Cubs are looking into getting into the College Football Bowl Game business. The thing that has to be asked isn't there already too many Bowl Games?

Agree, to many Bowl games, they would be better off with kick off classic type game.
Kick-off games seem to do well as all teams are playing for championship.

I'm old enough to remember the Bears playing in Wrigley Field ... pretty tight fit.

The Motor City Bowl could be moved to Chi-Town.

Didn't they do a game there a couple years ago and were only able to use one end-zone?

Noooooooooo...... It's my excuse to go to Detroit the day after Christmas. Casino, Texas De Brasil, Bazookis and Bowl game. In that order.

I'd pass on a trip to Chiraq in December.

I vote YES! Mainly because I live in Chicago and am always looking form more chances to see Tech live. Of course the chances of Tech playing in this bowl are slim.

Baseball season might have something to say about that.

Oh, boy, a December bowl game outdoors in Chicago. Can't live without it. Not.

Yeah i would rather have a root canal than sit in Wrigley Field in December.

I was thinking the same--- at least Detroit has an indoor stadium. Albeit without any kind of a crowd. But, the few there are warm.

Bowls were originally set up as destination exhibitions in warm climates, am I right?

Reward for a good season? Sheesh give a poke in the eye with a sharp stick! Chicago? December? Outdoors? No thank you!

Yeah that's like getting waterboarded as a reward for going 5-7 or 6-6.

That would be interesting to see. Not to mention very cold.
