NFL Done, Congressmen Turn Next To Nba

Doesn't Congress have a country to run or something? Aren't we at war? I guess not, apparently Congress has become some sort of professional sports drug abuse oversight committee. After all the great things they did for Major League Baseball (really, without those congressional hearings, kids might still be looking up to Alex Sanchez and his bloated stats), now they've taled to the NFL, and apparently, the NBA is up next. Well, Congress, if you pay any attention to anything, you would realize that the NFL has a pretty good drug policy and sticking your nose into it probably isn't going to make it any better. If I were Paul Tagliabue, I would tell Congress to fuck off. As for the NBA, I've never even heard a hint that they have any kind of issue with steroids, if they really want to look at the NBA, they might want to focus their inquiries on marijuana, instead. But anyway, none of this is the business of Congress, why doesn't this bother people that they're wasting their time on this? I mean, I guess if there were no people without healthcare, and no crime, and no homeless people and everyone's kids went to great schools and whatever, then it wouldn't be a big deal if Congress wanted to clean up professional sports, but the fact is there are a lot of problems in this country, and a lot of those problems are actually the responsibility of Congress. I'd really prefer if they spent their time on some of those.
