House panel considers college football playoffs

12-09-2009 • AP

A top official of the Bowl Championship Series says there are more important things for Congress to worry about than pressing for a playoff system for college football.

But lawmakers were taking a crack at it anyway Wednesday. A House panel was to consider a proposal to ban the promotion of a postseason NCAA Division I football game as a national championship unless it's the outcome of a playoff.

Ok, really... It's just a game. Do our elected officials have nothing better to discuss? So, somebody's mad because they thought they had a good team but didn't make a bowl game or something.... IT's JUST A GAME!!! May be just me but I think the people who are supposed to be running this country screw up enough already. Stay out of football! Oh, while you're at it, stay out of healthcare, small business, banking and cap&trade! Your job as our Gov't is to protect the people from threats both foreign and domestic. Not to be a domestic threat... Someone get me out of this police state!
