Pass the Protect College Sports Act

SORRY BUT THIS IS GENUINELY INSANE AND I HAVE BEEN TELLING YOU THIS ENTIRE TIME, LISTEN TO ME, THERE IS THIS GUY MATTHEW MITTEN WRITING IN THE HILL AND HE IS LITERALLY URGING CONGRESS TO PASS THIS BIPARTISAN THING CALLED THE PROTECT COLLEGE SPORTS ACT, WHICH IS WILD BECAUSE HE SAYS IT HAS TO HAPPEN TO PRESERVE THE UNIQUE COMMERCIAL AND EDUCATIONAL MODEL OF INTERCOLLEGIATE ATHLETICS, AND THE THING IS, HE SAYS THERE ARE NUMEROUS LEGAL CHALLENGES COMING FOR IT RIGHT NOW BUT NOBODY SAYS WHAT THOSE LAWSUITS EVEN ARE OR WHAT THE BILL ACTUALLY DOES TO FIX THEM, WHICH MEANS WE ARE APPARENTLY JUST SUPPOSED TO TRUST CONGRESS TO SAVE COLLEGE SPORTS IN ONE CLEAN SWEEP WITHOUT ANY DETAILS, SO NOW WE JUST WAIT TO SEE IF ANY LAWMAKERS ACTUALLY DO IT. ANYWAY I NEED A CIGARETTE AND I DO NOT SMOKE.

SO THEY HAVE FINALLY ADMITTED IT, HAVE YOU HEARD ABOUT THIS YET, NO OF COURSE YOU HAVEN'T, LEAN IN, THERE IS A GUY NAMED MATTHEW MITTEN ARGUING IN THE HILL THAT CONGRESS MUST PASS THIS BIPARTISAN THING CALLED THE PROTECT COLLEGE SPORTS ACT, AND THE THING IS, HE SAYS IT HAS TO SAVE THE UNIQUE COMMERCIAL AND EDUCATIONAL MODEL OF INTERCOLLEGIATE ATHLETICS FROM NUMEROUS LEGAL CHALLENGES, WHICH IS WILD BECAUSE WE ARE NOT TOLD WHAT LAWSUITS ARE THREATENING IT OR EVEN WHAT THE BILL ACTUALLY CONTAINS, WHICH MEANS HE WANTS POLITICIANS TO STEP IN AND SHIELD THE WHOLE SYSTEM WITHOUT ANY SPECIFICS GIVEN, SO NOW EVERYBODY IS JUST SUPPOSED TO NOD ALONG AND HOPE WASHINGTON FIXES IT. OK I AM GETTING ANOTHER ROUND, THINK ABOUT IT.

Matthew Mitten argues that Congress should pass the bipartisan Protect College Sports Act to preserve intercollegiate athletics amid legal challenges.
