Forget AIG—fix the BCS!
at the Atlanta Journal is not even a little impressed with Sen. Orrin Hatch's latest battle for justice and the American Way.Hatch and others in Congress want the champion of college football chosen in a more equitable way than the Bowl Champion Series (BCS).
Senator Orrin Hatch (R-Utah), a man I greatly respect, obviously doesn’t have enough to do. His constituents in Utah are upset that the Utes, at 12-0, didn’t get into the BCS championship game ahead of Florida or Oklahoma.The American in Hattiesburg, Miss. (one of the few places folks don't find Orrin's in-bred name funny) also thinks Hatch could find something more useful to do in D.C.
So Senator Hatch does what a good politician does when his constituents are mad—he pushes for Congressional hearings. So we are going to get another dog and pony show where some members of Congress, who don’t know if a football is inflated or stuffed, ask questions and fawn for the cameras back home

Once again Hatch shows just how out of touch with reality he really is. If this is the business of running the country that Hatch finds important then it is well past time he stepped down from office and headed off into the sunset into obscurity.
Because AIG was worth fixing...
Actually, from a legal perspective, it is a very interesting question of anti-trust laws. Remember how everyone bellyached about Microsoft? Maybe the BCS is in the same boat.
It a welcome change of subject from the ongoing financial drum beat
