TALLAHASSEE, Fla. - Florida Gov.
Jeb Bush said he was privately approached about his interest in becoming the NFL's next commissioner.

Bush said Tuesday the issue was discussed at a recent meeting with Patrick Rooney Sr., according to the South Florida Sun-Sentinel.

Rooney's brother is Dan Rooney, owner of Super Bowl champion
Pittsburgh Steelers and co-chair of the search committee looking to replace the retiring Paul Tagliabue.

"I met with Mr. Rooney and I said, `I'm doing my job until I'm finished and then I'm going to consider other things,'" Bush told the newspaper.

Bush has said he will not run for president in 2008. His final term as governor ends in January, although he doesn't believe NFL officials will hold the position open until then.

Tagliabue, who has been commissioner since 1989, announced in March his decision to retire. Although he originally set a July 31 deadline to be out of the job, he has indicated his willingness to stay on longer.

Jeb Bush or Condi Rice?

Who would you vote for to be NFL commissioner if you could vote on AT?

I don't know if Jeb has some of the same speech problems as his brother, but if he does, it'd be funny to hear him pronounce names at the NFL Draft like Mathias Kiwanuka or Ben Roethlisberger.

According to my former colleagues in Zurich, we're all butchering the pronunciation of this name.
