Thought counts: All bowl gifts aren't equal
Thought counts: All bowl gifts aren't equal

Ask any college football player about whether there are too many
bowl games and you might get a puzzled look. After all, you haven't seen some
of these bowl gift packs.
Go ahead and scoff at the St. Petersburg Bowl between USF and
Memphis. The players just ran off with mini camcorders and noise-canceling
headphones.
Bowls are permitted to give players $500 worth of bowl gifts.
They range from standard-issue bowl souvenirs such as hooded sweatshirts and
mini-helmets to nifty electronics such as iPods and Nintendo Wiis.
Here's a list of all the bowl goodie bags this season:

The gear:
$400 shopping spree at Best Buy during the bowl trip

The verdict: What a genius bowl gift. The players get exactly the
electronics they want with the shopping spree and the bowl officials can skip
some of the legwork.
