    Wasnt he going to eliminate the BCS system too? I thought that was one of his platforms. (seriously)

    It happened - he said it on Monday Night Football. However I never took it as him saying he would do so, only that he would prefer a playoff system.

    Wait, let's be clear: did he say he would like to see the BCS go away (as many football fans do, it seems), or did he make a campaign promise that he would do it?

    Papa, I don't remember the statement thaaat well but I remember getting the impression he would put whatever political weight which would be applicable behind getting rid of the BCS. Which was probably met by cheers but it's still a strange statement for a politician to make IMHO.

    He's said in at least one interview I know of that he would like to see a playoff system instead of the BCS. Hell the only people that don't think that way are the ones that own the rights to the bowls. They were basically discussing sports at the time so I didn't get any idea that he was stating any kind of agenda. Seemed like two dudes talking sports to me.

    I've never heard him say anything about getting involved in any way with the issue.

    Interesting. I never saw that interview.

    We should get on the steroids issue much harder too. :D

    That's an "old" joke. I like this one better:

    I heard that Obama won Top Chef because he made himself a sandwich for lunch.

    both of the jokes are lame as both have Obama taking some action.

    I heard Obama won <insert: top chef, sexiest man alive, heisman, etc> because he is NOT George Bush is much more fitting. Not funny, but more fitting of what he actually has done for peace, which is nothing.

    I think that there`s more important shit for Obama to worry about than the damn BCS! WTF.

    I took it as a fan comment but I haven't gone looking for the transcript or video of what he said.
