Michigan State Lawmaker Wants to Legalize NCAA Basketball Office Pools

If there's cash involved, technically you're breaking the law in Michigan. And a state lawmaker says that's criminal.


"What makes March Madness unique is that all kinds of people and sports fans of all levels fill out their brackets and enjoy the tournament," Rep. Kim Meltzer, a Republican from Macomb County's Clinton Township, said in a statement. "It's a crime we consider that a crime, and I want to change it."


Meltzer plans to introduce legislation that would decriminalize participation in an NCAA tournament office pool.

Something sensible done in the state of M*ch*g*n? What's next, they stop screwing dead animals?

Eh, gives them a reason to follow the tournament as Sparty will be out early and scUM is going on another NIT run.

Are the Vulvarines trying to hire Rick Neuheisel?

Surprising a Republican would do that.
