re: The new “opt out” bowls

This says otherwise. By saying they have become meaningless....what made the difference? Why were they meaningful before but meaningless now?

You've already insinuated that the shot at a title is what makes a game meaningful. If that is the case, then most bowls were meaningless before. there are two meaningful games before and there was only 1 or MAYBE 2 games before

Bowls have been meaningless forever, and they become more meaningless with every one of these corporate-sponsored moneygrabs they add.

Is there a system anywhere that's worse than this? Is there one more contradictary - an amateur sport thats not about the athletes or the product, but about making sure everyone maintains their own piece of the money pie? It's fricking absurd.
