Olbermann's not alone. On Saturday, Dave Zirin published his version of the same argument.
Why the NCAA Should Move the Final Four Out of Indiana, by Dave Zirin (The Nation)
... If (NCAA President Mark) Emmert really wanted to make a statement, he’d move next week’s Final Four out of Indianapolis. Emmert could announce that they were moving the basketball semifinals and finals to Cincinnati, less than 100 miles from the locale, so anyone who had their plane tickets or driving plans set wouldn’t be egregiously inconvenienced. Play it at the University of Cincinnati—hell, play it at a Cincy YMCA—but just get it out of the clutches of Mike Pence.
As noted here, I view it as unlikely. But the reasoning is strong.
