Gov. Jeb Bush to the NFL?
The Sun-Sentinel is reporting the following
Bush, who spends his Sundays each fall watching pro football, acknowledged Tuesday that the NFL job was broached during a recent meeting with Patrick Rooney Sr., owner of the Palm Beach Kennel Club.While I see this as more likely than Jeb Bush running for President, I'm betting nothing comes of it.
Rooney is the brother of Dan Rooney, who owns the Super Bowl champion Pittsburgh Steelers and co-chairs the NFL's search committee looking for a replacement for Commissioner 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. But I'm not going to do anything until I finish," Bush, who leaves office in January, told the South Florida Sun-Sentinel.
Although he has repeatedly said he will not seek the presidency in 2008, Bush has declined to say what he does hope to do other than return to Miami.

Patrick Rooney Sr. did not return calls and was out of the country Tuesday.
