In another example of Obama’s 3rd World dictatorship mentality, he is now getting the Justice Department to take on the BCS. I am no fan of the BCS, I feel it’s a rigged system that protects the interest of certain colleges and prevents worthwhile teams from getting a shot at a National title. A playoff system needs to be designed in order to see who the real champs are. The Federal Government is not the entity to impose this however.

WASHINGTON (AP) — The Obama administration is considering several steps that would review the legality of the controversial Bowl Championship Series, the Justice Department said in a letter Friday to a senator who had asked for an antitrust review.

In the letter to Sen. Orrin Hatch, obtained by The Associated Press, Assistant Attorney General Ronald Weich wrote that the Justice Department is reviewing Hatch’s request and other materials to determine whether to open an investigation into whether the BCS violates antitrust laws.

“Importantly, and in addition, the administration also is exploring other options that might be available to address concerns with the college football postseason,” Weich wrote, including asking the Federal Trade Commission to review the legality of the BCS under consumer protection laws.

Obama’s Totalitarian methods extend even to sports. The BSC should have a playoff system, however it’s the public who should pressure them. It is nor the Federal Government’s role to get involve in this. The reach of the Progressive Movement extends to sports as well.

Funny Side Note: I was at the O’Reilly/Beck Tour last night and Glenn made 2 references to a obscure 70’s/80’s Jazz Guitarist.
Glenn beck’s 1st reference was in regards to Smear Blogs. He mentioned the Left has smear blogs ran even by washed up Jazz Artists.
His 2nd mention was  when him and Bill were on stage together, O’Reilly mentioned Media Matters and they follow his every word. Glenn then said You Have Media Matters, I have a  Jazz Artist as a stalker. I was dying laughing!
