There is precedent for the federal government to get involved. They were the ones that forced colleges into the NCAA to begin with. What would their excure be? Inter state commerce?

The absolutely last thing we need is Congress, the folks that have managed the US Postal Service, Medicare, Social Security, Amtrak and countless other ventures into the ground, getting involved.

Bad, evil, rival to CBS Sports (and taking business from this clown's employer) ESPN is making sure colleges (including us) are making money.

Sure, our conference isn’t getting raided and we may never be in a conference with the big boys, but our cash got better because competition to CBS sports (ESPN, Fox, etc) are looking for teams to fill the customers need to watch college football.
