Sen. Dick Durbin Wants to Central Plan National Football League

Is there any circumstance or situation that Democrats in the United States Senate will not stick their nose into? Sen. Dickhead Durbin from the corrupt state of Illinois wants to conduct a hearing on the NFL.

A Senate Judiciary subcommittee will hold a hearing on the bounty system allegedly used by several National Football League teams – one day after top coaches from the New Orleans Saints were suspended as punishment for a program that awarded players with cash if they injured their opponents.


Sen. Dick Durbin (D-Ill.), who will chair the hearing, said Thursday the committee will also investigate whether federal sports bribery laws need to be changed to include sports bounty programs. The date for the hearing has yet to be announced, but Durbin said it will occur after the Easter recess.


“We will have a hearing and put on the record what sports leagues and teams at the professional and collegiate levels are doing to make sure that there’s no place in athletics for these pay-to-main bounties,” Durbin said on the Senate floor Thursday. “I want to hear the policies and practices in each of the major sports and collegiate sports that are being put in place.”

How is this any business of the United States government? But, I am reminded that today is the anniversary of Obamacare. A day when liberty died and we all became subjects of the central planners in Washington D.C. So, I guess it is appropriate that our lords and masters would stick their noses into one of America’s most beloved sport. Nero would have approved.
