| “What I don’t understand is, how did Iowa get a better bowl than Michigan when we beat them in the regular season?†Upton asked. Upton, as in Fred Upton, your congressman. The quote is from a Michigan Daily article (front page), you can read it here.
What I don't understand is, how does this man have a job? Not just as a congressman, but any job. This is the number two man on the Subcommittee on Commerce, Trade and Consumer Protection, not a small subject in this day and age. When deciding to hold hearings, many people might say that the exodus of manufacturing jobs is a worthy issue, but true visionaries like Fred Upton know better. They know about the pure evil that is THE BCS!!!
Yes, college football has risen so far that mere existence of the blasphemous BCS threatens the very fabric of our nation. Luckily we have the good representative Fred Upton to thoroughly investigate the matter and hear out complains from the Big Ten.
sigh
Last week we had McCotter thinking we're paying him to be a rock star and now we have Upton thinking we're paying him to imbibe with the boys at a sports bar in the capital building. If your boss told you to do anything you want to help the country, research any issue, write a law, visit a hospital, lobby your friends...etc. and then you went and decided to talk to football coaches, you'd be out of a job in a second.
It's nice, though, that we have a wonderful system called democracy, where you can play boss, and fire these lazy bums. |
