canceled bowl games

 i was planning on watching the holiday bowl on fox tonight, ucla vs. north carolina state. when the telecast was slated to begin i saw something else on, 'masked singer' if i am not mistaken, with something small at the bottom of the screen saying the bowl game had been canceled. articles i found online said it was due to the pandemic. four bowl games had been canceled earlier, and two are still slated to happen as they found replacement teams. iowa plays in the citrus bowl, hopefully that one will still happen. it would have served as a nice reminder of attending the 2006 edition of the holiday bowl, where cal-berkeley thumped texas a and m. i saw the zoo, sea world, and the bowl game's parade when i was in san diego. notable as well tonight was seeing an article how football great john madden has died. the documentary about him was something i had watched just days ago. at work my evaluation was moved back a day, to wednesday morning. not many overnight packages, just 9. fewer than christmas eve. in the evening i went on a walk and found 60 cents. the 'big bang theory' reruns were when the friends perform experiments on howard's kids when bernadette and penny were at a convention. amy saying 'want to bet against me?' was a line from it. it was followed by the one where sheldon ordered penny to get rid of a chair she claimed that someone else threw away. 'what's up buttercup' was a line from it.
