Actually, MLB is one of the few businesses (If not the ONLY business) to have an official anti-trust exemption so it is the Federal Govt's business what goes on in baseball. Not saying I agree with it, just explaining the Senators rationale.

That doesn't really explain why they're wasting on something that is already illegal rather than letting law enforcement worry about it.

Because there are few if any real conservatives left. Now both parties just want to make sure that government gets its dirty fingers in everbody's pies.

Default I Agree: This is a misuse of govt power.

McCain, like many politicians has no regard for his oath of office to uphold the constitution of the US. The constituion does NOT give the the federal govt power to regulate boxing.....

I read that McCain has threaten to block all legislation over this issue.

Geez. Is he for real?
