I think his first sports priority is to reform/eliminate the BCS in college football. I'd like to see him issue an edict that NCAA basketball championships can't be held in 75,000-seat football domes.

I heard there might be a bill introduced to create a National College Basketball Advisor which, as we all know, is just how Obama plans to control college ball... PyraBang, The People's Media! Promote Yourself AND Today's Relevant News and Info - Earn per click, don't pay per click!
