Forget government corruption or corporate fraud. Three members of Congress want the Justice Department to investigate whether college football's Bowl Championship Series is an illegal enterprise. Reps. Neil Abercrombie, D-Hawaii, Lynn Westmoreland, R-Ga., and Mike Simpson, R-Idaho, are introducing a resolution rejecting the oft-criticized bowl system as an illegal restriction on trade. The resolution would require Justice's antitrust division to investigate whether the system violates federal law. The measure also would put Congress on record as supporting a college football playoff. http://www.local6.com/spotlight/15913399/detail.html
Looks like someone's trying to acquire some votes from students of the U of Hawaii, U of Georgia, and Boise State.
Congressman from Georgia, Hawaii and Idaho a bit bitter? I'm not really an antiBCS person, I think it does a lot of things well. I wouldnt be opposed to a playoff, but I dont think the government needs to spend time worrying about it.
