Condi Rice Passes on NFL Post

Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, a big football fan, ruled out applying for the job of NFL commissioner after Paul Tagliabue retires.

"Unfortunately, it came open at the wrong time," Rice said Wednesday, clearly amused when a reporter posed the question. "Obviously, I'm very busy as secretary of state, and I intend to continue to be secretary of state as long as the president of the United States will have me."

Rice, an avid follower of the Cleveland Browns and pro football in general, has frequently said she aspires to run the league one day. In the days since Tagliabue announced he would retire in July, Rice's aides have said she was not interested.

I like her as Secretary of State, but it would have been interesting to see her take charge of the

NFL!

What's your take??

Why be President of the NFL when you can be President of the USA.

PS: Unless the Democrats are stupid enough to let GW steal a third election, wouldn't that be hilarious, the man is ineligible to run yet steals the election, Bahahahahahaha.

JonR - I would much rather be Commissioner of the NFL than President of the USA.

Being President is a thankless job (just check out this forum) 🙂

I think President of the NFL pays more money (I know it does) and it would be a lot easier job.....

I'm so happy she passed on it. I don't need her screwing up my favorite sport.
