I think that it is odd that people think that 535 people (congress) and almost 10,000 support staff (Senate and House) can or should only think of or work on only one "important" issue at the same time.

Professional sports is an inter-state commerce issue.

Section 8 of the Constitution: Powers of Congress

Quote:
To regulate Commerce with foreign Nations, and among the several States, and with the Indian Tribes
That's why congress is, and should be, involved in this issue. It is important and it is their job.
