Congressman John Dingell cleared his schedule with pesky "side issues" to write a letter to the Big 11 10 Chairman Jim Delaney because he's worried his constituents wont be able to watch Michigan Football games on the fledgling network.
Why? Because none of the Michigan cable companies will be carrying the Big 10 Network.
And apparently that prompted enough potential voters to write Mr. Dingell and demand that the federal government get involved. This springs to mind a little t-shirt our friend at House Rock Built put together last year...

Our elected officials just don’t have enough to do. Imagine being upset because you can’t watch the stripeheads play Appalacian State.

Why does the state that look like a hand have a school who’s mascot is a set of fingernails? So they can scratch the — of Canada.
