Huh?!?!?!
Found this article more than a bit perplexing. The main point:
Rep. Edolphus Towns, D-N.Y., the incoming chairman of the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform, said he will hold hearings and possibly subpoena NCAA officials, college presidents, players, coaches and athletics directors in an effort to force a playoff in Division 1-A football, USA Today reports.
"I think you really do not get a true No. 1 out of (the Bowl Championship Series)," Towns told the newspaper. "Nobody questions the Super Bowl. The team that wins is the best team that year. I think we can do the same thing at the college level where once it's over there is no questions about who is No. 1 and who is No. 2."
Okay, aside from the whole "so we've cured cancer and solved all the world's other ills" mantra, why on God's green Earth is this even being considered? The NCAA can do whatever they choose, Congress be damned. How does this rise to the level of importance to demand Congressional hearings? I just don't get it.
