Rice not likely to pursue 'dream job'
WASHINGTON (March 20, 2006) -- 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.

"She thinks football is the greatest sport on earth, but even if she were approached for the job -- which she has not been -- she would have to decline," Sean McCormack said.
"She still has many things she wants to accomplish as secretary of state," he said.

Rice, who is avid particularly in support of the Cleveland Browns, is enjoying being secretary of state "at the moment," McCormack said.

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.

She might also aspire to be president or vice president, at least there has been speculation that she might wind up on the Republican ticket in 2008.

4. Hint. Hint. She's leaving, sooner than Jan 20, 2009.

The whole Washington franchize is being moved to its new home in Guantanamo, Cuba. The NFL also announced that its contract with Halliburton to build the new stadium there has been cancelled.

"A fresh sheet of paper", a League spokesman called it.
