Well, this is actually something the Federal government has a completely legitimate point in getting involved in.

Remember that little thing about interstate commerce?

That's what this is about.

All this stupidity about discrimination is just that, stupidity.

I think that the ICC might have some views on discrimination too. Not sure you want to open up that can of worms if you support the discriminatory bills.

To answer the previous posters question, NC is still on the list because HB2 still is in substantial effect. The 'solution' left in place a ban on protecting LGBT persons from discrimination. It was a full throated affirmation and endorsement of discrimination by the NC legislature.

Potentially, the California teams would have to forfeit. It would be the end of either championships in certain states, or the end of the NCAA.

I doubt it's the end of the NCAA and I doubt the California state government is going to risk the backlash they would be sure to receive if one of their state schools were to be forced to forfeit the opportunity to play in a major bowl or national championship game due to it being played in a state on their ban list. If that occurs then hopefully networks have the intestinal fortitude to either sue them or strip them of P5 status. If either occurs then adjustments to the ban would most likely be made.

Sue them? For what? Obeying California state law? The state of California OWNS the Athletic Department at UCLA and SDSU. Its their property and they can do with it what they wish.

Who would really kick up sand if say Cal had to forfeit a bowl game? Sure there'd be some alumni who are upset (and they'd be loud), but its Cal....I think you overstate how important FBS football is to the average Californian or the average Cal student.

Who would take away P5 status for UCLA and Cal? The networks? Do you think the Pac12 would expel them for that? I promise you all hell would break lose at pretty much EVERY Pac12 institution (from significant portions of their own student bodies and alumni) if they tried that.

And the NCAA isn't going impose sanctions on schools for refusing to subject their students and fans to discrimination in other states.

So no, if California wants to do this, and other states want to join them, then there's little that can be done to change it.

If USC makes it to the play off and doesn't go because they would play in a banned state wouldn't that give the networks grounds for a lawsuit? To be honest I don't know but I would think they would.

USC is a private school. The law doesn't apply to them.

I bet you voted to elect those clowns.

Again, Texas doesn't give a rat's behind what CA is doing with official gov't travel. Texas will not cower or succumb to pressure, no matter what. Ultra conservative guys like Ted Cruz are winning big in state wide elections. Texas swagger runs deep and you don't mess with Texas and expect them just to fold. It ain't happening. If anything, I'd expect an even bigger travel ban by TX to CA as reciprocation, rather than changing any laws. You just don't get it. This means less than nothing to Texas politicians.

Tens of thousands of Californians leave their state and head to Texas by choice every year. Wonder why that is?

LOL. That's why California real estate is so expensive.

There's nothing Texas can do about it. California doesn't care about Fresno State's football team as much as they do about the next Democratic primary

The AG is expanding the scope of the bill, not dialing it back. That should provide some clarity as to the seriousness that he's taking with this. You'll find that California has swagger too.

This will eventually be resolved in a manner that is acceptable to the LGBT people. But that will take time. Until then, I can't see how any conference with a state institution in California can credibly discuss adding a team from a banned state.

I'm not sure you are 100% in touch with reality here. My reading of the mainstream media is that the backlash is more likely to occur if California was to bend on the ban so as to allow their schools to do something as trivial/insignificant as play in a major bowl or national championship.

To CNN, WAPO, NY Times, etc. the principles behind the California ban are far, far more important than whether a school gets to play a Major Bowl game or not.

The Texas Governor has already warned the NBA and NFL about getting political in our state. California can do what they want, but Texas will not change our laws.

In fairness to him, he wanted to have a conversation about the issue--one where he controlled the bounds of it. You know, the kind of conversation where only buzzwords and disingenuous explanations are allowed--the kind of conversation where you not so secretly just get bombarded with bull****.

Don't believe me? See the post to Coog and every subsequent one brushing up on it.

Disingenuous post by disingenuous poster is disingenuous.

I'm certainly not in touch with California reality. But hey if they don't allow their public schools to participate in NCAA tournament games and bowls located in banned states and forfeit the associated tournament unit and bowl pay outs then more power to them.

No, the law was preset to HB2 and there were not anti-gay laws. Men went to mens bathrooms and Women went to Womens bathroom. What people don't get that each state has laws in their state constitutions that grant powers. Charlotte did not have the power to make the laws they made, a point that was overlooked. Then the Legislature took an ax to kill a fly and went beyond where is should be. The reset button was hit and to prevent another town doing what Charlotte did there was a 5 year ban agreed to by the newly elected Dem Governor to prevent towns from starting this whole fiasco over. Irony of irony, the deal the that was agreed to prior to this only had a six month ban under the lame duck GOP gov and the newly elected Dem Gov told them to vote no. So there is no discrimination, the law was preset but the LGBT did not like that it was setback and really got screwed by the Gov the went all out to get elected. Again, I am not saying HB2 was right or wrong but both sides FUBARed. Sadly, since journalism is a dead art, it never got covered very well because reporters from both sides put their slant on it.

In fairness to him, he wanted to have a conversation about the issue--one where he controlled the bounds of it. You know, the kind of conversation where only buzzwords and disingenuous explanations are allowed--the kind of conversation where you not so secretly just get bombarded with bull****.

Don't believe me? See the post to Coog and every subsequent one brushing up on it.

Disingenuous post by disingenuous poster is disingenuous.

For the record, Coog actually make a patently political post attempting to call this somehow religious discrimination on the part of California.

I've found you to be personally rather passive aggressive. Its like expert level. You have a patently political viewpoint too.

These are the facts

1) States ARE passing laws clearly targeting the LGBT community that clearly affirm discriminatory treatment towards LGBT persons.

2) California has passed a law that prohibits state funding for travel and contracting for events where its citizens or employees will face discrimination. This bill, in no way, has anything to do with religious discrimination. It even allows Cal to schedule a game at Liberty.

3) This bill might impact conference realignment.

---

You and I hold different viewpoints. But my viewpoint is probably similar to that of those in California. And its a valid one on here, because that's one of the viewpoints driving this issue. And will remain a salient one. The OP is one that voices the views of those who put up the bill. You are free to put up your interpretation with all the buzzwords and whooey you'd like.

But you rarely bother with discussing the merits on demerits on issues. You seem to just insult me. You are free to bring up your legal opinion as to the legality of the Assembly Bill or the AG's interpretation. You haven't done it. Come on man, show off your training. I'd love to see how you try to shoehorn the ICC into requiring California to use taxpayer dollars to ship LGBT people to Texas so they can be discriminated against.

BTW, I'm perfectly able to understand your arguments. I think I know where you were trained.

Perhaps you should consider contributing to the discussion rather than simply insulting anyone who has a viewpoint that doesn't mesh with yours.

Well, this is actually something the Federal government has a completely legitimate point in getting involved in.

Remember that little thing about interstate commerce?

That's what this is about.

All this stupidity about discrimination is just that, stupidity.

I think that the ICC might have some views on discrimination too. Not sure you want to open up that can of worms if you support the discriminatory bills.

To answer the previous posters question, NC is still on the list because HB2 still is in substantial effect. The 'solution' left in place a ban on protecting LGBT persons from discrimination. It was a full throated affirmation and endorsement of discrimination by the NC legislature.

Wow, for someone who admonished everyone to "not make this political" at the start of this thread, you sure haven't shied away from making it political. 07-coffee3

Just correcting someone else's incorrect statement. He asked why NC was still on the list. A list that will impact athletic scheduling. Want to talk about how this impacts conference realignment?

I'm from Mobile Alabama and I live in Houston Texas. LOL. The whole reason this ban developed was that some states want to enable people to discriminate against minorities. Try again.

The whole reason California is passing these laws that impact athletics is in response to other states not treating people equally.

Ok, what do you expect from a typical liberal loon who has a California liberal loon mentality, but stuck in Texas? With these types it will so always do as I say, not as I do as the Ryle only applies to those who disagree. Better?

Actually, which side wants discrimination? That appears to be yours. So I'm not really understanding why you'd come after me as if I'm trying to say rules apply to some but not all. I think that's the whole point of the laws in Mississippi, Texas, NC, etc., and why California has a bill in the first place.

Again, the California bill simply says 'no travel to states where people can be discriminated against because they are LGBT or that pass laws endorsing/enabling that discrimination'.

And I think this discussion is the reason why the California bill and its ramifications for college athletics will become an issue and will remain one for a while.

I've made at least one comment on how this might impact on realignment, as well as bowl game and NCAA championship event participation, and recruiting. I've argued that the implications are likely to be pretty significant, and agreed that it was thus very appropriate for you to introduce the issue to this forum.

However, since your first reply to Attackcoog, you've used liberal-political language to describe the actions of California and the actions of the states that they have 'banned' travel to. You've continuously used the California language of "discrimination" to describe the actions of Texas et al., and not the language of those states, which have talked about their laws in terms of "affirming religious freedom". Point is, both views are political, the first liberal, the second conservative. If you want to focus this discussion on just realignment, you have to avoid both views and their associated ideological terms. But you haven't.

So if your goal really was to stick strictly to the implications of this ban for realignment, and not get bogged down in politics, you've been your own worst enemy here.
