First off, let me just say that this is NOT a political blog.  What I write is for ENTERTAINMENT PURPOSES and just for fun. Okay?  Got it?  Good

Now, on to the the blog.  I'm sure by now, most of you heard that Florida Governor Jeb Bush was approached in possibly replacing current commish Paul Tags to be the next commissioner of the NFL.  Then, only a few months prior, during the SB, Condoleezza Rice advised that she wouldn't mind being the commish someday.  Horrible, HORRIBLE move.  And here's my thoughts on why:

 

 I don't know about you guys, but there are only a few things named Bush that I like.  There's Reggie Bush.  Then there's Bush's Baked Beans.  I even liked Bushwick Bill from the Geto Boys back in the day.  But that's about as far as I go for things that I like with the "Bush" anywhere in the name.  The NFL has one Bush already.  No need to bring in another.

 

Condi's a bad choice, because every time I think of her, I think of a delicious mexican dish from the Hacienda, one of my favorite restaurants.  Every time someone says her name, I'll think it's time to eat.  Not that I have anything against her.  I just know that I'll never think of football with her as the commish.   

You see, people love football as well as other sports.  It's a way to get away from it all.  When things are going wrong in your life, or even in the world, people turn to sports as a scapegoat from life's everyday issues.  Even if it's just for a few hours, that little bit of time brings our sanity back.  It's our "me" time, to think not about the war or the soaring gas prices, but to think about what our favorite teams are gonna do this season, why they aren't being respected by analysts, or why they are just horrendously bad.  Mixing politics with sports is like oil and vinegar together,or adding sugar to a gasoline tank.  Bad, bad mix.

 

If either of these guys become the next big wig, here is my speculations of what may happen when they are running things:

* Texas will get 6 more franchises: 1 more each in Dallas and Houston, San Antonio, Amarillo, Austin, and one for Jeb's hometown of Midland.  Each year, the Super Bowl will be played in all six of the stadiums in order to fund the stadiums and the existence of each team.  Teams that L.A. gets during tenture: 0

* Super Bowls will be rigged and Pro Bowl ballots will be tampered.  Expect teams that you would never expect to be champions become dynasties, while players you have never heard of a day in your life make the all star ballot (sorry, I had to go there.  All in good fun, though).

* The following teams will either go to the Super Bowl, or win every year: Dolphins, Jaguars, Browns (Condi is a Browns fan), Cowboys, Texans, and the other 4 TX expansion teams.  They also will have the weakest strength of schedule each and every year, while their division rivals have the toughest.

*As a player, expect to miss a few hundred thousand dollars from yuor paycheck.  The reason?  To the building fund.  We still don't know what they are building yet.

*Steroids to be legal.  Remember, the Bush family owned the Rangers, and at a time when most of the players were taking steroids for the competitive advantage.  Lying and cheating is the American sporting way, right?!

Okay, okay.  Maybe I took it too far.  I was on a roll.  Seriously, though.  I think that whoever runs the NFL once Tags is gone, will have to really do some serious damage in order to mess up an empire that the NFL is today.  No matter who it is, things have been good for a while now.  But the bottom line is, we need a separation of the two worlds.  Trying to put them together just won't work well, because they'll forever be intertwined afterwards.

Here are some of my potential candidates for the next NFL Commisioner:

               Angelina Jolie-  The NFL's market is already extremely large and popular.  But with her as the commish, I'd guarantee the NFL's profit would go up 200% with the men.  In the same sense, she would lose over 200% of her female audience, mainly because a lot of women thinks she's a homewrecker, but I'm sure that's a double plus for men who have nagging wives trying to learn football while the game is on.  Say those two words, and it's a instant turnoff for most females.  It a win-win for men.  Good to look at, with no women around

 

 

 

Shannon Sharpe-  This guy would give you the funniest press conferences and sound bytes you ever heard from any commissioner ever.  He would bring a lot of much needed laughter and comedy to a sport so many people take so seriously.  But I also think Shannon would be a good disciplinarian.  One rule I think Shannon would slack up on:  TD celebrations.  I don't know about you guys, but I thought for the most part, the celebrations was funny.  After all, football IS a source for entertainment, right?  As the co-founder of excessive trashing talking, I think he would agree with me and therefore let the player have a little more fun, as long as it's not intended to mock a player from another team. 

 

Michael Irvin-  Anything to get him off the NFL Coundown crew.  Listening to him talk about a bunch of nothing makes me sick!!!!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Bill Cowher- One of the popular coaches in the NFL.  Knows his stuff, very respected by players and coaches.  And with a  mean mug like that, who would have the guts to challange anything he says??  We all know when Bill talks, he sprays it.  No one wants to be the next victim of his #### shower.

 

 

 

 

Lawrence Taylor-  With him, you know the NFL will never be boring, even in the offseason.  We all know LT's famous game plan for Sunday's games.  Buying strippers for opposing players the night before, so they will be tired and unfocused.  What a strategy!!  Imagine what other good "ideas" good ol' LT could come up with...........

 

 

Okay.  Just kidding.  But we can all laugh about this, can't we?
