- Of course ASU has a right to worry about its investment. As the host of
- a major bowl game, it should also have the responsibility to listen to
- the participating schools' desires before making a reasoned decision.
-
- CU wants to take Ralphie to the Fiesta Bowl because it's a really big
- game, and the alumni and fans (even those watching on TV) would get a
- kick out of seeing her run. (She is considered by many to the best
- mascot in the nation, you know :-) I don't know why FSU didn't (ask to)
- bring Chief Osceola and his horse to the Fiesta before; I think they've
- got a great mascot, too.

- I'll trade you a couple of tickets to ASU's bowl game this year for two
- Fiesta Bowl tickets.
