This is particularly funny to me because I worked with this congressman's daugter. The greatest thing about this story is that his ENTIRE FAMILY is AGGIES!!!!!!!!!!
There is a joke about screwing in a lightbulb somewhere around here...

What a joke! Glad that Congressmen are so concerned with college football that they forget less important things like fixing Social Security, Healthcare, etc. And to think all this time I was under the impression that they were too busy handing money to the broken, and unfixable US auto industry!

they are trust bustin dude. the BCS is COMMUNIST!!! And should be illegal. The people who run it are money grubbing thugs, and are cheating a lot of people. Therefore congress should be involved when at least half of America wants the BCS gone.

Same thing happened when the flying wedge formation became successful. (Just because a few player got killed- The poli. no sense of humor). 
To be exact, at the turn of the 19th century, the two leading causes of death in this country were infections and accidents. Thus, there is a deep concern to reduce deaths from both. Antibiotics are 40 years off but accidents could be addressed. Teddy Roosevelt threatens college administrators with Goobernment intervention if something wasn't done to reduce deaths in college football.
The answer was the implementation of an organization called the National Collegiate Athletic Association. Thus began the second most fraudulent institution (after the US goobernment of course) in the history of mankind. And things have been worse ever since.
Once again, if goobernment gets involved, it only makes things worse.

Bring the trial lawyers. There has got to be some money to be made by them in bringing down the BCS.

I know of a university with a damned good law school that turns out attorneys who might want to take a stab at it.

I thought I heard/read that the motto was, "If it ain't broke, then break it!!!!!!"
But I guess it is just a matter of correct English.

Bevo is always happy: he just chills in the corner and grazes at will. Unless of course, he is unlucky enough to run into Peruna. That is always a bad day for other mascots.

Let's not forget the assortment of pharmaceuticals used to keep him chill.
