The Attorney General of Utah is investigating the BCS for a violation of antitrust laws because the Utes didn't have any opportunity to vie for the national championship, despite going undefeated for the third time since the BCS system was put in place.
Who can honestly say the system isn't rigged to ensure that the Floridas and Oklahomas and Texases and USCses and Ohio Stateses will always have a monopoly on a shot at the national title?
I bet Congressman Cliff Stearns (Republic*nt-FL) would say it and believe it. He wants to close down Congress so he can go to a football game. What did he expect Nancy Pelosi to say when he asked for the day off? "Sure Cliff, that's cool. Nothing big going on that day. I'll just sign your absence slip so you can show it to the Hall Monitor if you get into any trouble."
Pelosi's office said she would not agree to the request. Among the votes to be considered Thursday afternoon is certification of the Electoral College vote that gives Barack Obama the presidency.
I've been dreaming of that day for years. No Skoal-chewing southern Republican is going to deprive me of that largely symbolic moment so he can watch his Gaters play for their birthright!
Screw you, slacker! I'm with the Homormonophobes on this one!
How cool would it be if the whole system flipped and we had a few years of Boise St. vs. Marshall National Championship Games? That would be the death of some of the storied football schools, because the system can only ever support so many good teams. A big school has a couple of bad seasons and there goes their recruiting. All of a sudden the best prospect in the Michigan wants to go to Eastern Michigan instead, and college boys in Texas dream of becoming a Horny Toad.
There go your Wolverines, Dustin. You're a UCF guy anyway, aren't you? Just to make you feel better, I put a picture at the top of a Knight Riders cheerleader about to give birth.
