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.
