I'm not sure what the situation warrants. You can be a law-abiding citizen doing absolutely nothing wrong and still get sick. You can even be triple-vaccinated and get sick.
Does a trophy ordinarily won by a team that performed better in a football game demand preservation? I wouldn't want it.
All we can do is rely on medical experts to tell us whether it's a good idea to cancel games or allow exposed or infected individuals to participate. Right now, they say cancel. OK. We deal with the disappointment and move on.
Commemorating disappointment seems pointless.
I do, however, think that the bowls should pay the appearance fees regardless of what caused the cancellation. Even to UCLA, unless it was within their control to play anyway under the current rules.
Every day, of course, I'm worried the semifinals will be canceled. Or that a star for Michigan (rumors are strong they could lose their only secondary player capable of handling Georgia's excellent tight end). It's a potential disappointment I guess I've already calculated into the moving on eventuality.
