I find it funny that a State government would even consider legislation to overturn a decision made by a sports association. At the end of the article, there is a comment made that the state is also considering forming a panel to discuss the feasibility of forming a new alternative state association.

The Governor of Illinois has already stated that he will send State employees home on "furlough" if he can't get a budget increase he wants. Now the state legislature is talking about getting involved in sports. Personally, I doubt it ever happens, but I sometimes wonder about the thought processes of some of our elected officials.
