Wow, I'm not even sure what to say. That's pretty sad and I always thought the CB was one of the better bowls. Man it better be a good watch!!

Im guessing they couldn't get proper data. it says watch not even a brand name. Probably rant with watch because someone said "a watch or something I don't know". I'd be really surprised if that was it cosidering the reputation of these sponsors.

Fossil Watch? You can get those cheap things at JCPenneys amn. They should get a Rolex or something and a ring as well.LCW wrote:WTF? "Watch"?
As posted, better be a d*mned fine watch.

Gifts: Fossil watch
That's what I'm saying.
Something else I read said that the CB officials liked to keep the gifts "under their hat" til they were in the player's hands. Let's hope it's something worthy of these boys...they earned the best gifts possible.

And if they dont get good gifts they can always see what they got at the hotel. Man, im funny. You can get mad at that, but you will laugh first.LCW wrote:That's what I'm saying.

They get more than a watch. Buddy of mine was on the 03 CB team and he brought back some electronics and some clothing items made solely for the teams (CB logo stuff; the watch BTW is the official bowl watch, the face had the logo on it). The max amount that the Bowls could give out then was $350 then; it is $500 now.

Have heard that they are getting a 36" vizio flat screen. Don't know if it's true.
