My question really came up because Chop Robinson (PSU) has opted out of       the bowl game. But why did he even bother playing against Michigan State? I       can sort of see the        Rutgers game because that was his last home game, but what relevance did the       MSU game have vs. the bowl game?              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
