Putting Rumors to Rest
If Condoleezza Rice truly doesn't want to be President, she could take another job:
Condoleezza Rice, a bona fide football fan, is not applying for the newly opened post of NFL commissioner -- not now, anyhow, her spokesman said carefully on Monday.
"At the moment, the secretary is enjoying being secretary of state," said McCormack of his boss, an avid Cleveland Browns fan.
The wiggle-room in his response after NFL commissioner Paul Tagliabue announced he would retire resonated off frequent only half-joking statements by Rice that as a lifelong football fan she aspires to run the league one day.
I'd support her for commish. (Also, it's not every day that I get to file a post as both "Sports" AND "National Politics".)
