And Feldstem reRponded: "WelL I think Alan Blinder was right on I think the plan has to be big, it has to · he 4u ick. and it has to be foc used on creating employment." fe ldstem recommended agamst tax rebates for indi' idual s, which ~><as tried e,u·lier thi s year and led to no last1 ng employment ~ams. ' "I think the key thing is !.tu ff l1ke eqUipment. rhcrc 's a lot of equipment 111 pubh~ mstituuons . both k dcral and state that could be renewed and replaced ," , he said, mcluding military ~ 4u1pmen t. .

Actually, Congressfonal ,md state transportation ~x pem say that the states have been t'orced to halt $80 b1 llion worth of highway. wa ter, sewer and school const ructio n projects becau se of recesstOnJnduced budget restraints. These could be relaunched qu1ckly with federa l money, be ~nder w,J} w1thm three months and begin to re-employ laidof f constrt1ction workers. There's now a lot of chattel - and a Time magazine cuve1 - liken ing Obama's to Franklm D Roosevelt m I932 and h1s program to the New Deal. And Obarna is duplicating FOR's example in having nothing to do with deciding economic policy until be takes office. Feldstein thinks that's a mtstake . "I think (Obama) should say, 'Look, I'm not only president-elect. I'm also a senatof, and I can introduce legislation. I can work with the (economic) team that I'm bringing together ... and come up with a really substantial plan ." Feldstein - this is the conservative, mind you .said that the extra spending plan ought to be $300 billion for 2009 and $500 billion over the next two years, above and beyond the $700 billion already committed to the rescue of financial institutions. lt's worth noting, as Feldstein and other conservatives do, that the United States did not emerge from the Great Depression until World War II, the hugest Keynsian project of all time . And why? Even liberals such as Princeton economist Paul Krugman admitted in his New York Times column that Roosevelt's' spending programs were combined with tax increases - the first stimulative, the latter, depressive. Amity Shlaes, author of "The Forgotten Man: A New History of the Great Depression ," make;; the same point and urges Obama - instead of giving in to the temptation to reverse Reagan-Bush tax policy - to drop plans to raise capital gains and other taxes on the rich. I'd say, he should do so until the recession is over. Then, the United States has to start returning to fiscal responsibility. Over-borrowmg will undermine the country's credit-worthiness, and printing money wildly will debauch the currency. At a conference put on by the New America Foundation, Brian Riedl of the conservative Heritage Foundation pointed out that, even at $10 trillion, the federal debt is just 38 percent of GDP, below post-war levels. But if trillion-dollar annu· al deficits continue and baby-boom retirement promises are not shaved back, the debt could hit "100, 200 or 300 percent." Another participant, Maya MacGuineas of the Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget, warned that "the next bubble could be federal debt. The U.S. government could be the next subprime borrower." So. as Feldstein said. "what we need now is to have a major spending program which takes the place of the arms build-up that happened as we went into World War II." But Congress also ought to be putting in place mechanisms - such as the enti· tlement commission recommended by Reps . Frank Wolf, R-Va., and Jim Cooper, D-Tenn. - to contain out-of-control spending in the longer run . And a bailout for GM? Like AIG, the auto industry probably is too big to fail it would send an additional 3 million workers onto unemployment lines - but the domestic industry needs to be restructured . Washington Post columnisi Steven Pearlstein has come up with the idea of a "pre-arrnnged bankruptcy." That would involve promises of federal aid along with a federal takeover of the companies~ pension obligations, and renegotiation of union and dealer contracts. Creditors would take a loss, stock.1olders would be wiped out and management would be replaced. It's an emergency we face, no question. But soon-to-be White House Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel had it right when he said, "No crisis · should be allowed to go to waste." Let's hope he altd bis boss manage this one well better, in-fact, than FDR.

Itary experience, publicly I have seen many lists , perceived as weak on and they're still coming, national sec urity, (Oliama) from civ il liberties and would have much more to • prove (to the citizenry)." An even more troubling cautionary note comes from Jack Goldsmith who, while in the Bush Justice Department, tried haro to roll back that administra· tion{s conviction that in the war on terrorism, ther;e are times when only the presi· dent must be the law. He is the author of "The Terror Presidency" (W.W. Norton). Goldsmith, as quoted by Healy in Reason magazine, warns: "For generations! The Terror Presidency wil be characterized by an unremitting fear of -attack, an obsession with preventing the attack, and a proclivity to act aggressively and pre-emptively to do so." A future president will be aware: Goldsmith predict· ed, that "he alone will be wholly responsible if thousands of Americans are killed in the next attack." That includes Obama. So whet)ler actual terror does strike at home now or maybe in the administration of Sarah Palin, it's vital for the present com· mander in chief and Congress to change the Military Commissions Act so that those of us allegedly purposefully and mate· rially supporting h'ostili· ties agamst the United States - without any evi· deuce to support that charge - do not flood ou~ prisons .

Many of the .estimated 300 adoption groups around the country are seeing increases in returns of adopted greyhounds and declines in new adoptions. "There have been a lot of stress-related returns with people losing their houses or their jobs and more adoption · groups are reporting new adoptions are down," said Michael McCann , president of The Greyhound Proje<;t Inc ., a Boston-based nonp~ofit corporation that provides support and information to llreyhound adoption organtzations and the putJiic. "It seems to be related to the economy mostly." The problem is ' compounded by more racetracks closing - at least seasonally in the face of increased competition from casino ' gambbng and the genera~ economic - slowdown, McCann said. Massachusetts voted Nov. 4 to ban greyhound ·racing, leading to the closing of two tracks there by January of 2010 . "With some tracks having several hundred dogs, they have to ' go somewhere," McCann said. "Some of them can go to other tracks, but many of them are ending up needmg to be-adopted." He said the problem is not confined to the continental United States. A racetrack in Guam that recently closed left about 150 dogs needing homes, and animal rescue officials have been contacting U.S. groups for help. "They may have to be destroyed if there is no J?lace else to go," McCann satd. Nonprofit greyhound adoption groups and others trying to promote,adoptions also seeing a decrease in donations to fund tl\eir services, with potentia\ donors financil!IIY strapped. Joanna Wolfe , president of Triangle Greyhound Society in Raleigh, N.C., said there has been a downtum in the amount of people attending events held to provide infermation on AP photo/The Cincinnati Enquirer, Jeff Swinger Steve and Odile Scroggin pet Rogan, a two-year-old greyhound at their home rn Madeira, Tuesday, Oct. 7.

"It cari cost at least $300 just to get a dog ready for adoption, with the necessary shots and vet checks and having it spayed or neutered," Wolfe said. ~· And that do_esn 't include housing and feeding the dogs and try· ing to find homes for them." Joan Buck, foster coordi-' nator of Queen Cit.y Greyhounds in Cincinnatt , said that group is doing bet· ter than some. "It amazes me that we are doing so well , with adop.' lions up from last year," Buck said. "But there are always more greyhounds than there are homes. and I thmk everyone is concerned about that." . Greyhound Friends Inc., located in the Massachusetts suburb of Hopkinton. normally has about 35 dogs with a few more in foster care. Executive Director Louise Coleman says they have had a lot of dogs commg in from four tracks that closed for the season in New England . "We have about 200 on a waiting list to come here ." Coleman said, adding that the li st is usually about halt that number While some groups say there is no way to determine exactly how many grey hounds are adopted annual ly. the Nat10nal Greyhound AssoctattOn estimates the number at about 20,000. "While adoptions have been increasing in recent ~ears , we don't expect an~ mcrease this year and 11 mtght stagnate a bit in the current economy," sa1d Gary Guccione , executive director of the Abtlene , Kan .-based association that is the regtstry for racing greyhounds ·on the North Amencan continent, He said the racing industry has been hurt by stagnant purses and the rismg cost of .raising a gre yhound from btrth until it can go to the track at about 18 months of age- about $2,500 per dog . Guccione and McCann satd greyhounds make wonderful pets because they are quiet. gentle, adaptable and accustomed to human handling. "lWenty years ago greyhound adopt1on was nearly unheard of. and they were routinely put down at the end of their career," satd McCann. "But adoplton 'groups and the mdustry have worked hard and are still workmg hard to change that."

' "I think the key thing is !.tu ff l1ke eqUipment. rhcrc 's a lot of equipment 111 pubh~ mstituuons . both k dcral and state that could be renewed and replaced ," , he said, mcluding military ~ 4u1pmen t. . Bl inder sa1d he'd be skepIICd l about massive infraslluctLII ~ spending because 1l wu ld not be spent quickly. "But the economy has turned so dark 1t's so clear now that tht s is gmng to be a long and deep recession, that the re·, actually enough 11111e to get Infrastructure spendi ng '_ I mean serious lllfrastructure spending , not pork - lllto thi~ program." Actually, Congressfonal ,md state transportation ~x pem say that the states have been t'orced to halt $80 b1 llion worth of highway. wa ter, sewer and school const ructio n projects becau se of recesstOnJnduced budget restraints. These could be relaunched qu1ckly with federa l money, be ~nder w,J} w1thm three months and begin to re-employ laidof f constrt1ction workers. There's now a lot of chattel - and a Time magazine cuve1 - liken ing Obama's to Franklm D Roosevelt m I932 and h1s program to the New Deal. And Obarna is duplicating FOR's example in having nothing to do with deciding economic policy until be takes office. Feldstein thinks that's a mtstake . "I think (Obama) should say, 'Look, I'm not only president-elect. I'm also a senatof, and I can introduce legislation. I can work with the (economic) team that I'm bringing together ... and come up with a really substantial plan ." Feldstein - this is the conservative, mind you .said that the extra spending plan ought to be $300 billion for 2009 and $500 billion over the next two years, above and beyond the $700 billion already committed to the rescue of financial institutions. lt's worth noting, as Feldstein and other conservatives do, that the United States did not emerge from the Great Depression until World War II, the hugest Keynsian project of all time . And why? Even liberals such as Princeton economist Paul Krugman admitted in his New York Times column that Roosevelt's' spending programs were combined with tax increases - the first stimulative, the latter, depressive. Amity Shlaes, author of "The Forgotten Man: A New History of the Great Depression ," make;; the same point and urges Obama - instead of giving in to the temptation to reverse Reagan-Bush tax policy - to drop plans to raise capital gains and other taxes on the rich. I'd say, he should do so until the recession is over. Then, the United States has to start returning to fiscal responsibility. Over-borrowmg will undermine the country's credit-worthiness, and printing money wildly will debauch the currency. At a conference put on by the New America Foundation, Brian Riedl of the conservative Heritage Foundation pointed out that, even at $10 trillion, the federal debt is just 38 percent of GDP, below post-war levels. But if trillion-dollar annu· al deficits continue and baby-boom retirement promises are not shaved back, the debt could hit "100, 200 or 300 percent." Another participant, Maya MacGuineas of the Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget, warned that "the next bubble could be federal debt. The U.S. government could be the next subprime borrower." So. as Feldstein said. "what we need now is to have a major spending program which takes the place of the arms build-up that happened as we went into World War II." But Congress also ought to be putting in place mechanisms - such as the enti· tlement commission recommended by Reps . Frank Wolf, R-Va., and Jim Cooper, D-Tenn. - to contain out-of-control spending in the longer run . And a bailout for GM? Like AIG, the auto industry probably is too big to fail it would send an additional 3 million workers onto unemployment lines - but the domestic industry needs to be restructured . Washington Post columnisi Steven Pearlstein has come up with the idea of a "pre-arrnnged bankruptcy." That would involve promises of federal aid along with a federal takeover of the companies~ pension obligations, and renegotiation of union and dealer contracts. Creditors would take a loss, stock.1olders would be wiped out and management would be replaced. It's an emergency we face, no question. But soon-to-be White House Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel had it right when he said, "No crisis · should be allowed to go to waste." Let's hope he altd bis boss manage this one well better, in-fact, than FDR.

An even more troubling cautionary note comes from Jack Goldsmith who, while in the Bush Justice Department, tried haro to roll back that administra· tion{s conviction that in the war on terrorism, ther;e are times when only the presi· dent must be the law. He is the author of "The Terror Presidency" (W.W. Norton). Goldsmith, as quoted by Healy in Reason magazine, warns: "For generations! The Terror Presidency wil be characterized by an unremitting fear of -attack, an obsession with preventing the attack, and a proclivity to act aggressively and pre-emptively to do so." A future president will be aware: Goldsmith predict· ed, that "he alone will be wholly responsible if thousands of Americans are killed in the next attack." That includes Obama. So whet)ler actual terror does strike at home now or maybe in the administration of Sarah Palin, it's vital for the present com· mander in chief and Congress to change the Military Commissions Act so that those of us allegedly purposefully and mate· rially supporting h'ostili· ties agamst the United States - without any evi· deuce to support that charge - do not flood ou~ prisons .

He was seen with a light navy blue, older model Chevrolet Blazer that did not have a spare lire mounted pn the tailgate.

Many of the .estimated 300 adoption groups around the country are seeing increases in returns of adopted greyhounds and declines in new adoptions. "There have been a lot of stress-related returns with people losing their houses or their jobs and more adoption · groups are reporting new adoptions are down," said Michael McCann , president of The Greyhound Proje<;t Inc ., a Boston-based nonp~ofit corporation that provides support and information to llreyhound adoption organtzations and the putJiic. "It seems to be related to the economy mostly." The problem is ' compounded by more racetracks closing - at least seasonally in the face of increased competition from casino ' gambbng and the genera~ economic - slowdown, McCann said. Massachusetts voted Nov. 4 to ban greyhound ·racing, leading to the closing of two tracks there by January of 2010 . "With some tracks having several hundred dogs, they have to ' go somewhere," McCann said. "Some of them can go to other tracks, but many of them are ending up needmg to be-adopted." He said the problem is not confined to the continental United States. A racetrack in Guam that recently closed left about 150 dogs needing homes, and animal rescue officials have been contacting U.S. groups for help. "They may have to be destroyed if there is no J?lace else to go," McCann satd. Nonprofit greyhound adoption groups and others trying to promote,adoptions also seeing a decrease in donations to fund tl\eir services, with potentia\ donors financil!IIY strapped. Joanna Wolfe , president of Triangle Greyhound Society in Raleigh, N.C., said there has been a downtum in the amount of people attending events held to provide infermation on AP photo/The Cincinnati Enquirer, Jeff Swinger Steve and Odile Scroggin pet Rogan, a two-year-old greyhound at their home rn Madeira, Tuesday, Oct. 7.

"It cari cost at least $300 just to get a dog ready for adoption, with the necessary shots and vet checks and having it spayed or neutered," Wolfe said. ~· And that do_esn 't include housing and feeding the dogs and try· ing to find homes for them." Joan Buck, foster coordi-' nator of Queen Cit.y Greyhounds in Cincinnatt , said that group is doing bet· ter than some. "It amazes me that we are doing so well , with adop.' lions up from last year," Buck said. "But there are always more greyhounds than there are homes. and I thmk everyone is concerned about that." . Greyhound Friends Inc., located in the Massachusetts suburb of Hopkinton. normally has about 35 dogs with a few more in foster care. Executive Director Louise Coleman says they have had a lot of dogs commg in from four tracks that closed for the season in New England . "We have about 200 on a waiting list to come here ." Coleman said, adding that the li st is usually about halt that number While some groups say there is no way to determine exactly how many grey hounds are adopted annual ly. the Nat10nal Greyhound AssoctattOn estimates the number at about 20,000. "While adoptions have been increasing in recent ~ears , we don't expect an~ mcrease this year and 11 mtght stagnate a bit in the current economy," sa1d Gary Guccione , executive director of the Abtlene , Kan .-based association that is the regtstry for racing greyhounds ·on the North Amencan continent, He said the racing industry has been hurt by stagnant purses and the rismg cost of .raising a gre yhound from btrth until it can go to the track at about 18 months of age- about $2,500 per dog . Guccione and McCann satd greyhounds make wonderful pets because they are quiet. gentle, adaptable and accustomed to human handling. "lWenty years ago greyhound adopt1on was nearly unheard of. and they were routinely put down at the end of their career," satd McCann. "But adoplton 'groups and the mdustry have worked hard and are still workmg hard to change that."

AP photo falling revenues are project·ing budget deficits of2 percent to 3 peh.:ent. .· lllinois closed a handful of historic sites in the early 1990s due ro budget cuts. The current cuts are coming as the state is preparing a high-profile celebration of the 200th birthday of native son Abraham Lincoln, although money was fdund to keep most of the Lincoln sites open and expand hours at some. The Lincoln Log Cabin near Charleston, the reconstructed cabin Lincoln's father built which had nearly 83 ,000 visitors in 2007, would be a casualty, however. "This couldn 'r come at a worse time," said Erik Hostetter, a union official who organized a 60-person protest outside the governor's mansion in S~ptember. "It's a pretty mindless, stupid way to balance the budget." States around the nation are making tough budget decisions. In Mississippi, cuts are being made to the arts commission and corrections departmeiu. New York Gov. David Paterson is calling for cuts in the growth in school aid and for an increase in , tuition at state colleges: Historic sites are easy budget-cutting targets because there are so many of them and they are so visible, said Terry Davis. president of the American Association for State and Local History. · "It's going on everywhere ," Davis said. "Nobody is quire sure - . long term.what all of this means." The Ohio Historical Society ·had 417 full-time equivalent jobs in 200 I. Today, there are 270. The society 's budget will be·cut 4.75 percent this fiscal year, which ends June 30. The money troubles may persist. The Ohio Office of Budget and Management has told the organization to prepare hypothetical ·budgets for 2010 and 2011 with a further 10 percent funding reduction. In Arizona, the gover· nor's office has asked the histQrical society to show what the consequences would be of an additional 7.5 percent budget cut. To save money and preserve access, the Ohio group has established local partnerships for the operation of 29 historic sites and plans to accelerate that process. But the society reduced access at the 29 sites it manages by two days · a week this year, which cut into admissions, parking fees and merchandise sales. Host towns are hurt by closings and reduced houts . "For a lot of these smaller communities, these historic sites were huge income generators.," said Hostetter, staff representative for American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees Council 31 in Springfield, Ill. "That's. a huge blow to a lof of these economies." Vandalia (Ill.) Mayor Ricky Gottman estimates that closing the Vandalia Statehouse where Lincoln was a state representative will cost his community as much as $50,000 a year in sales and other taxes. Admission fees and sales this year at the Armstrong Air & Space Museum, which opened in 1972 in the astronaut's hometown of Wapakoneta, produced $206.527 . Greg Marjenin, 56, of . Cleveland, took off work from the· Cleveland Clinic and made a seven-hour round trip earlier this month ' to visit the museum. · · "A place lil,ce this I'm sure has national if. not international interest," Marjenin said. "To actually see real things means more than seeing a picture on the Internet. "With a spacesuit, you . can just imagine what it would be like for someone to be wearing .one of those or to see a capsule to see how cramjled it actually is." Rebecca Macwhinney, historic site manager, s!ljd .· she and her six fellow staffers worry that the museum's one-week closing in March may be just the ' beginning. "It·~ so important for this museum· to remain open to share the visjon, to intrigue people's minds," said. •· RACINE - Winners in a fundraiser to go toward treats for sen'iors during the holidays were announced today by tt\e Racine Area Community Organization follow1~g the Nov. 15 drawing at the American Legion hall m ~acme.

One team is ranked No . 10 and has a conference title and a prime bowl spot on the line wben it goes for its fifth consecutive win ov_er its chief rival, which has an awful 'record and is winding up a horrible season. Yet Ohio State (9-2, 6-1) takes nothing for granted when its plays Michigan (38, 275). Even the university president is . orried. "That's what makes this particularly dangerous this time around," Dr. E. Gordon Gee said Monday during a visit to coach Jim Tressel's weekly meeting . with reporters. "I think that people can assume too much. When it comes to a rivalry, every rule book should be thrown out and everything that you're thinking should be thrown out. This will be a great football game and we will be in for a titanic struggle, I believe." Ohio State has won the last four meetings, and is a lopsided choice to make it Features five. . World Syndicate, provider of the Glantz-Culver Line, established Ohio State as a 19point favorite - matching the most points the Buckeyes have • ever been favored by in a game against their bitter rivals. The Buckeyes seem to have so much to play for and the Wolverines sp little. Ohio State can grab a share of its fourth straight Big Ten title with a win before a rollicking home crowd Saturday.

The Arizona Historical Society has closed the research library at its museum in Tempe and sharply teduced hours at the tesearch library in Tucson.

AP photo falling revenues are project·ing budget deficits of2 percent to 3 peh.:ent. .· lllinois closed a handful of historic sites in the early 1990s due ro budget cuts. The current cuts are coming as the state is preparing a high-profile celebration of the 200th birthday of native son Abraham Lincoln, although money was fdund to keep most of the Lincoln sites open and expand hours at some. The Lincoln Log Cabin near Charleston, the reconstructed cabin Lincoln's father built which had nearly 83 ,000 visitors in 2007, would be a casualty, however. "This couldn 'r come at a worse time," said Erik Hostetter, a union official who organized a 60-person protest outside the governor's mansion in S~ptember. "It's a pretty mindless, stupid way to balance the budget." States around the nation are making tough budget decisions. In Mississippi, cuts are being made to the arts commission and corrections departmeiu. New York Gov. David Paterson is calling for cuts in the growth in school aid and for an increase in , tuition at state colleges: Historic sites are easy budget-cutting targets because there are so many of them and they are so visible, said Terry Davis. president of the American Association for State and Local History. · "It's going on everywhere ," Davis said. "Nobody is quire sure - . long term.what all of this means." The Ohio Historical Society ·had 417 full-time equivalent jobs in 200 I. Today, there are 270. The society 's budget will be·cut 4.75 percent this fiscal year, which ends June 30. The money troubles may persist. The Ohio Office of Budget and Management has told the organization to prepare hypothetical ·budgets for 2010 and 2011 with a further 10 percent funding reduction. In Arizona, the gover· nor's office has asked the histQrical society to show what the consequences would be of an additional 7.5 percent budget cut. To save money and preserve access, the Ohio group has established local partnerships for the operation of 29 historic sites and plans to accelerate that process. But the society reduced access at the 29 sites it manages by two days · a week this year, which cut into admissions, parking fees and merchandise sales. Host towns are hurt by closings and reduced houts . "For a lot of these smaller communities, these historic sites were huge income generators.," said Hostetter, staff representative for American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees Council 31 in Springfield, Ill. "That's. a huge blow to a lof of these economies." Vandalia (Ill.) Mayor Ricky Gottman estimates that closing the Vandalia Statehouse where Lincoln was a state representative will cost his community as much as $50,000 a year in sales and other taxes. Admission fees and sales this year at the Armstrong Air & Space Museum, which opened in 1972 in the astronaut's hometown of Wapakoneta, produced $206.527 . Greg Marjenin, 56, of . Cleveland, took off work from the· Cleveland Clinic and made a seven-hour round trip earlier this month ' to visit the museum. · · "A place lil,ce this I'm sure has national if. not international interest," Marjenin said. "To actually see real things means more than seeing a picture on the Internet. "With a spacesuit, you . can just imagine what it would be like for someone to be wearing .one of those or to see a capsule to see how cramjled it actually is." Rebecca Macwhinney, historic site manager, s!ljd .· she and her six fellow staffers worry that the museum's one-week closing in March may be just the ' beginning. "It·~ so important for this museum· to remain open to share the visjon, to intrigue people's minds," said. •· RACINE - Winners in a fundraiser to go toward treats for sen'iors during the holidays were announced today by tt\e Racine Area Community Organization follow1~g the Nov. 15 drawing at the American Legion hall m ~acme.

RecreatiOnal 1 �• Pqe 82 • The Daily Sentinel Tuesday, November 18, 2008 www.mydailysentinel.com College playqff bandwagon adds a weighty 5upporter They've still got the TV networks, flush sponsors, college presidents, conference commisstoners, chambers of commerce and computers powerful enough to run NORAD . We just picked up the president-elect. "We should be creatmg a playoff system," Barack Obama said during an interview on "60 Minutes ," taking to the airwaves for the second time thts month to push his plan for an eightteam college footballtoumament. "It would add three extra weeks to the season." he added "You could trim back on the regular season I don 't know any serious fan of college football who has dtsagreed with me on lhts. So, I'm gomg to throw my weight around a little btt. I think it's the nght thing to do." w)lo goes Someone around saying "Yes we can" may not be used to heann~ "No, sir, actually we can't.' . To be sure, the soon-to-be most powerful man in the free world has plenty more to worry about at the moll_l,ent. But even if the prcrstdent-elect manages to clear ~IS desk, the soonest the suits who control the Bowl Championship Series would agree to a playoff is 2014 - and even then there are no guarantees The current contract w1th Fox runs through 2010, and after shooting down a proposal ' from Southeastern Conference Commisswner Mtke Shve for a four-team plan last spnng, hts fellow Jun' Ij•l·e ll\: commiSSIOners announced their posttion was nonnegoliable m the next four-year BCS contract, regardless of which network ends up signing on the dotted hne Current BCS chief John Swofford restated that stance m response to Obama 's re marks Sunday mght. "For now, our consutuenctcs - and I know he understands constituencies , have settled on the current BCS system , wh 1ch the majonty beheve is the best system yet to deterrmne a national ' champion while also mamtammg the college football regular season as the best and most meaningful m sports," Swofford said He goes on to hst the four BCS "primary obJectives," namely preserving the drama of the regular season, protecting the bowl system, keeping football a one semester sport and domg what's best for the studentathletes "We certamly respect the opt mons of pres1dent-elect Obama," Swofford concluded, "and welcome dialogue on what's best for college football." The bnef statement ts wrong on so many levels. tt 's hard to know where to begin. Let's start by notmg hts "constttuencies" don't mclude the fans, stru:e polls have shown that roughly mne out of 10. as well as most players and coaches. want a playoff. As for cheapening the regular season, the BCS took care of that itself a long•ume ago Despite tweaking Its rules and polls a half-dozen ttmes, tt's managed to exclude at least one worthy contender from the champwnshtp game nearly every season and on several occasions, two _ Whtle It's a little easter for a school from outstde the six power conferences to quahfy for one of the top-dollar BCS bowls, tt's harder than ever for those same midmaJors to earn a spot in the tttle game. As for limnmg the season to one semester and looking out for the student-athletes, even an old-school authority hke Penn State coach Joe Paterno qutl buying that line years ago •·r think the college presidents allowing the BCS thmg ts a real, real shame. Whenever the talk turns to havmg some kind of a playoff. they say you can't miss classes and yet we've already got NCAA playoffs (m every other college sport) and everythmg else. "I mean, who's kiddmg who?" Paterno added. "They've got to try to figure out a way to get nd of it and the hypocrisy of money, money, money." , So when Swofford says he and his crowd "welcome dialogue on what's best for co llege football." what he really means ts "get lost." The BCS crew ts convmced they've got everythmg under control. The results suggest otherwise. Since hijackutg the game's postseason m 1998 With the pro mi Se of matchmg No . I vs. No. 2 m the IItle game. they've deli vered exactly twice. Once in 2002. when undefeated Mtamt and Ohto State met , and agam m 2005, when Texas and Southern Califorma dtd the same. The last two, m whtch SEC members Flonda and LSU took turn s embarrassmg Ohw State, were practically unwatchable. The season should end with an exclamation point. not a questiOn mark , Dependmg on how thmgs play out next weekend, when unbeaten Texas Tech plays at Oklahoma and unbeaten Utah plays BYU in Salt Lake Ctty. there could be plenty of exclamation s and more questtons than answers In the past, the BCS bosses have tried to escape the blame for the mess they ' ve created by suggesting they might be ready to change. If they wind up trying to pull that one again, we know someone who mtght have enough clout to hold them to their word. Jim Litke is a national sports columnist for The Assoctated Press . Wme to him at jlitkeap.org Financial crunch speeding big layoffs in NASCAR lli'~~ilf):l BY JENNA FRYER ASSOCIATED PRESS CHARLOTTE. N C The ghtz and glamour surrounding NASCAR 's championshtp-decidmg race roared on at HomesteadMiami Speedway as tf nothing was amtss. Lucky fans sllll lined up for their pre-race garage tours , celebrittes and CEO's crowded pit road and the champa~ne flowed following Jtmmie Johnson's record-tymg thtrd consecutive tttle . Yet 11 felt a httle flat Above all the pomp of Sunday 's season-fi nal e hung an au of uncertainty and, in some cases , sheer panic . Team members qutetly passed around resumes, lookmg to latch on at stable organizations. Others worried that the checkered flag ' at the end of the race would also signify the end of a steady paycheck. Mass layoffs are expected throughout the NASCAR thts week, as team owners from all three nat10nal senes adjust to the economIC cnsis. It's d1fficult to say how many will be put out of work, but some guess as many as 1,000 will Jose thetr jobs. ' The cutbacks are most eviden\ at the top-level Spnnt Cup Senes, where layoffs began a mere two month s into the seaso n when BAM Racing stopped showmg up at the track. Then Chtp Ganasst let 71 pe,ople go when he cui down to two cars m July.
