TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (AP) - Florida Gov. Jeb Bush says he has been 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.

Although he originally set a July 31 deadline to be out of the job, he has indicated his willingness to stay on longer.

Is that possible? Is it like giving 110%?

Does he even like football? The NFL has had some excellent commissioners the past few decades. I would prefer someone to carry on that tradition. If he can do it, great. But if he is only being considered because of his name, forget it.
