California lawmaker seeks end of Bowl Championship Series
December 13, 2004
SACRAMENTO (AP) -- The Republican leader of the California Senate has introduced a resolution calling for the dissolution of the Bowl Championship Series.
Sen. Dick Ackerman, an unhappy alumnus of California, is only half-kidding with the measure, which even if approved could not force the breakup of the BCS.
Ackerman, a 1964 Cal graduate, is furious that his school lost a chance to play in one of college football's big-money games despite ranking among the top five in the polls most of the year.
``The BCS has proven in its seven-year existence that it is a failure,'' Ackerman said. ``It has failed at the expense of California and other Pac-10 teams that have lost millions of dollars in revenue.''
There's no word yet whether the Texas legislature will seek a resolution endorsing the BCS. Texas slipped past Cal in the BCS standings in the final week and received an invitation to play in the Rose Bowl, even though the Longhorns were previously ranked behind Cal.
Ackerman blamed Cal's loss on last-minute lobbying efforts by Texas officials.
``Politicking and campaigning have no place in college athletics,'' he said. ``Teams should be judged on their performances on the field and not by the success of their PR campaigns.''
Now I will put a sentence in BOLD here...:
Sen. Dick Ackerman, an unhappy alumnus of California, is only half-kidding with the measure, which even if approved could not force the breakup of the BCS.
Now read again...: "...only half-kidding with the measure..."
Now read again...: "...even if approved could not force the breakup of the BCS."
Get it?
Nothing to worry about. Just more ravings from someone that didnt do enough research.
