13. Response from the CFP

IRVING, TEXAS (Spurious News Network) -- The SNN Newsroom has just received a communique from the headquarters of the College Football Playoff.

"The members of the College Football Playoff Board are confused by President Trump's executive order directing our organization to not schedule games in conflict with the Army-Navy Game.

We have never scheduled a game in conflict with this game.
We will never schedule a game in conflict of this game.
And President Trump's executive order authority does not extend to private individuals like the College Football Playoff.

We have, therefore, decided to do two things.

First, we will not schedule games in conflict with the Army-Navy Game.
And second, we have contracted with our broadcast partners to run, at all times during any game that is part of the College Football Playoff, a scroll across the bottom of the screen informing our viewers that President Trump is mentioned in the Epstein files 38,000 times. If that number grows, we shall alter the scroll to reflect the current number."
