3. I'm Torn, On The One Hand, It Would Be Great For The Country To Get Him
Out of politics, on the other, if he were NFL commish I might have to work w/ him as he would sit on the board of the org. for which I work (the NFL is a major sponsor).

8. I would make a deal with him
You can be NFL commish if you convince your brother to resign now and take his dream job as MLB commish, otherwise no deal.

11. if that happens
I quit watching the NFL. I'll never buy another team item, never watch another afternoon of football, stop buying miller lite(don't do that anyway), but never ever will I support the sport again.

13. Can't wait to see
Edited on Wed May-24-06 03:13 PM by RedStateShame
The 3-13 Miami Dolphins face the 2-14 Tampa Bay Buccaneers in the Super Bowl after a quick Supreme Court session, just to have them rule that the Jacksonville Jaguars are the champions with a 1-15 season.

Edited for typing errors.

17. What is it with the bushes and sports?
george was head of a baseball team, now jeb for NFL commish? If it keeps them out of politics, then good.

21. he was figurehead of a team
he was simply brought on board (he had a single digit percentage share) to suck up to his pappy. The ownership group was then able to use eminent domain to steal a bunch of land and then extort money from the taxpayers for a new stadium, then sell the team for a huge profit, which they pocketed. In other words, standard operating procedure for Bushco.
