OT: Condoleezza wants to be NFL commissioner ....

I don't recall reading anything about a sexual favor.

If you want to make any accusation, I think you show proof or provide a link.

Holy crap I can't wait till pre-season.

 

Your still living in the Clinton administration. You can not in all seriousness think that she performed sexual favors to be named Secretary of State? Your not that nuts, are you?

 

Leave your politics and chauvanism out of the Football forum NEM and I'll have no "bone" to pick with you.

But you can the count on the fact that any time you call the women members of this board "b!tches" or otherwise disparage women, I will not mince words. (And were you ever man enough to publically apologize to Bill's Girl about that? No, of course not)

And you can also count on the fact that whenever you bring politics into this board I'll call you on that as well.

Ian gave you "one last chance" after your tirade against Bill's Girl. You behaved for awhile but now it looks like you're up to your old tricks, and are getting bolder with every minute that you face no consequences.

I think you've made your position on all these issues clear. You have every intention of insulting women and promoting your politics here at every opportunity.

Its a shame that you'd insult us and Ian with your attitude.

 

No Way

If she were to become NFL Comissioner I would absolutely stop watching NFL football until she got fired. I don't want to get into politics here but that moron said, "Who could have known they would have flown planes into buildings?" When Randy Yusef was arrested in 1996 in the Phillipines he had plans to fly a plane into the CIA building. The Columbine Killers had plans to fly a plane into the Twin Towers. God she makes my blood boil.

I can see her now at the NFL podium. Condi states, "Who could have known people like watching NFL football in color? I thought black and white TV would be innovative."

 

I thought she would be the anti-Tagliabue. Tagliabue is a concensus builder who shuns the limelight. She, on the other hand, is a polarizing figure who, I thought, can't see enough of herself on television. You also have to question her judgement, such as when she went to NYC shopping for shoes and watching a broadway show while her native Alabama was being battered by Katrina.

Would a moderator please move this thread to the General Talk forum posthaste?

Thank you.

 

What should people born in Alabama ...
have been doing instead?

 

We could solve this controversy by naming me commissoner. That would end this debate...or maybe create another one.

 

I apologize for starting this thread. If I thought of how you, NEM, would respond to this topic I would never have posted it.
As soon as I saw your first post I knew I overlooked you and your reaction.
I certainly did not intend this to turn into a politcal discussion. To me it was
about looking at a candidate as a possible replacement for Tags. Without
reguard to her politics I just thought a person with that much experience
negotiating would be a good candidate and found it interesting that she is
a big fan of the game.
Sorry NEM for ruffling your politcal feathers.

 

You should not feel responsible for NEM's inability to control himself JR4

The vast majority of other posters could discuss possible commissioner candidates without taking political cheap shots and suggesting that successful women have made their achievements through sexual favors.

There's only one person on this board who can't seem to control himself and he gets very upset when people actually call him on it.

And whether its disparaging women and breaking the rules by attempting to politicize the Football Forum, in his mind he always seems to have a justification for it.

 

Political incorrectness here:
All politics aside, and I have no idea how good a negotiator Rice is, but the fact remains - she's a chick - and NFL Commissioner is not a good place for a chick as talented as she is. There's no glass ceiling here in the NFL for women. There was one for black guys, but that's coming down for good reason. It's a league of men except for Georgia Frontierri (sp). You can pretend all you want that women can hold absolutely any position a man can (some can hold positions I never dreamed of) but this would be like making a woman the king of Saudi Arabia. The NFL is a boy's club, is there anything wrong with that? Pulling out the "gender discrimination" card is bogus, IMO.

Watch, now, Oprah will buy the Bears and Condi will be Commish, and I'll be wrong again.
