Barack and Michelle Obama's sit down with 60 Minute's Steve Kroft

@ 37:43 "I think any sensible person would say if you've got a bunch of teams who play throughout the season, and many of them have 1 loss or 2 losses, and there's no clear or decisive winner, we should be creating a playoff system. 8 teams. It would be 3 rounds to determine a national champion, it would be 3 more weeks but you trim down the regular season.... I don't know any serious fan of college football who've disagreed with me on this. I"m gonna throw my weight around on this. I think its the right thing to do"

If he's going to throw his weight around in the world of sports, he should start with the incompetent refs in the NFL before taking on a college playoff system.

p.s. Did you see Kroft in that interview?
I was waiting for him to drop to his knees and deliver a hummer.

I think he should make this his number 1 priority when he gets in office. I mean its absolutely critical to the well being of the county.

To quote the boys on ESPN, C’mon man, with the mess the countries in how do you even bring up the subject. Economy, security and host of other subjects to numerous to mention are valid issues, but a NCAA college football playoff system? Kroft is a dolt.
