The NFL Gods are at it once again. The worlds most successful sports league will name a new commissioner this summer. Several people have talked of tossing their helment into the ring along with several others thinking about the toss. The US Secretary of State, Condolezza Rice has made it very plain she would love to have the job. Condi, just because you can deal with Vladimir Putin what makes you think you can confront Al Davis or Jerry Jones? Besides the good old boy network of the NFL has already been threatened with a lawsuit about their hiring of minorities, I don't think there is a chance in hell they would hire a black female to be their figure head. Florida Gov Jeb Bush has also put out overtures he might be interested in the job if the NFL can wait until Janunary when his term in Florida is up. I don't think confronting national disasters is a good qualification, the NFL does not even have a team named the Hurricanes. What about the allegations he help fudge the voter rolls? I guess if the NFL was headquartered in Las Vegas the so called fudge might be a good qualification but the NFL will not go near Vegas! If Jeb wants a commissioners job he should apply for the Baseball job. The best baseball players all come from South America and with Jeb fluency in Spanish he would surely be a good baseball comissioner. What about Al Gore, he needs a job. No! he can not tear himself away from the global warming thing. What about Al's buddy Bill Clinton. The NFL is not stupid they would not let Bill get within 100 yards of their cheer leaders.
If my name was on the back of one of those God chairs, I would pound my fist on the table and demand Donald Trump become the NFL commissioner. As a mortal I will admit to a little selfcenteredness but as a God not only would I be running over with selfcenteredness I would be filled with a lot of self promotion. The Donald would be foever grateful and grant my every wish. I can just see the Donald now, walking around the room, pointing his finger and yelling " You're Fired ". I would make sure the first person he fired was the former chief of Disney, Michael Eisner. Elmer Fud Eisner took Monday Night Football off of ABC were it was free for everyone and put it on ESPN were everyone has to pay the cable company big bucks just to see the Monday night game. Really don't know what I am complaining about, I can't even stay awake for the second half kick off on Monday nights!
Donald Trump is the best man for the job. He sure knows how to fire people and sonner or latter Jerrry Jones is going to demand we all pay to watch the Cowboys. If the Donald was in my corner I could demand he march right up to Jerry and yell " You're Fired "
The NFL Gods will pick who ever they want for the commissioners job. All the smucks including myself will have to live with what ever bones the NFL throws us. I just wish they would blow the whistle and let the dog war, I mean football game begin.
WOW what an article on football........I guess you may be right there may be a day when we have to pay to watch the Cowboys....
