This guy is my new hero..

"I think they’re just one of the most vicious, most ruthless organizations ever created by mankind," Illinois Rep. Bobby Rush said of the NCAA at a congressional forum on college sports Tuesday. "I think you would compare the NCAA to Al Capone and to the Mafia."

Any Chicago politician should know plenty about the Mafia - as that is who got them elected in the first place...
