Can we please keep him out of politics? I think putting him in the NFL would not be a bad move.

I'll warn you ahead of time ...  this is a bad joke.

Seeing as how he has a drug addicted daughter he may cast a sympathetic vote towards Ricky playing!  Wink


I warned you!

How about they make the commissioner someone who has actually been a part of every day NFL business. Bush and Rice make no sense whatsoever. So what if he watches football every week? If that makes him a candidate, I'm going to send in my resume to the NFL.

I don't get it.  Why are they looking at government to run the NFL?  It seems like they should hire someone from within, with a little bit of experience with the league.  Also, (and I'd say this for any democrat, too) people already have a split opinion on Jeb, and the Bushes, period.  Why not bring in a guy who will be fairly judged on his merit as an NFL commissioner?  It's like when they put Rush Limbaugh on that pregame show.  Why even take that risk?

Thank you Dave.

I think I just saw a pig fly by my office window...

BJL is right - I bet every person on this board knows more about the NFL and football in general than Jeb.  I'm sending in my resume as well!

Brian would suck as NFL Commish.  He'd forget to tell teams how much money they'd have to spend, and rush to schedule games last minute.

I think that Jeb Bush would be a great NFL commisioner.

However, I would rather see someone with NFL experience.

Just so everyone knows, he does have a bit of experience as he was part owner of the Jacksonville Jaguars when they were formed.

I think everything I'd want to say about this has already been said by Dave, Brian and a few others.

KEEP POLITICS OUT OF MY FOOTBALL

I think it should be, as BJL mentioned, someone who has an intimate knowledge of the day to day business of football. Not some government crone or hag who wants more camera time, but someone who would actually be qualified to do the job going in.
