I couldn't choose where to put this particular nugget of information so I decided on generals.
The following is an excerpt from an AP article: WASHINGTON (AP)—Tackling an issue sure to rouse sports fans, lawmakers pressed college football officials Friday to switch the Bowl Championship Series to a playoff, with one Texas Republican likening the current system to communism and joking it should be labeled “BS,” not “BCS.” John Swofford, the coordinator of the BCS, rejected the idea of switching to a playoff, telling a House panel that it would threaten the existence of celebrated bowl games. Sponsorships and TV revenue that now go to bowl games would instead be spent on playoff games, “meaning that it will be very difficult for any bowl, including the current BCS bowls, which are among the oldest and most established in the game’s history, to survive,” Swofford said. Rep. Joe Barton of Texas, who has introduced legislation that would prevent the NCAA from calling a game a national championship unless it’s the outcome of a playoff, bluntly warned Swofford: “If we don’t see some action in the next two months, on a voluntary switch to a playoff system, then you will see this bill move.” What the f*ck??? Betweens wars, a disastrous domestic and global economy, environmental issues, health issues etc etc etc, our goverment is worried about A COLLEGE FOOTBALL PLAYOFF SYSTEM? |

Yeah it seems very trivial doesn't it? If people focused more on what is going on in this world then it might not be in the shambles that it is in now. Heck and I even say stop worrying about the WORLDS problems and start taking care of our own here!
