That's the line in the final scene of "A River Runs Through It".

But it is particularly appropriate to the ongoing alignment of college football conferences. So here's a solution to stop it. But first a disclaimer-I read it from a letter to the L.A. Times sports section-whats left of it.

All college football teams merge into one single conference. "The United States College Football Conference". Then, much like the NFL, there would be a limited number of "Divisions" depending on locations. I.E, One conference would be on the West Coast made up of USC, UCLA, Cal, Stanford, Oregon, Oregon State, Washington, Washington State. And if you add other colleges like Arizona and Arizona State, Colorado, etc. you might call it the -get this-the Big 12. Those colleges in the middle of the country like Ohio State, Wisconsin, Minnesota, Nebraska, Michigan, Michigan State, etc. And here's something -you might then call this "division: the "Big Ten". Then, naturally, the winner of the Pac 12 could, at the end of the season, could play the winner of the Big Ten. Now I wonder where that mike take place? HMMMM what about that nice stadium in Pasadena where they could even have a parade on New Years day before the game-and since any parade has tons of flowers we could call it "The Rose Bowl".

How's that for a novel idea?
