I think her biggest problem arises in the type of preconceived bias that is taking root in this thread.

Personally, I believe Condoleeza Rice could be a very good commsioner, but unfortunately she has had such a high visibility job in the past that no matter how good she performed in the position, her efforts would never be acknowledged by half of the critics. I think the same would be true for anyone in a similar position.

except for the extreme lack of credibility (both from not being involved in football and the lying/untruthiness thing) and that she comes across as being fake and disingenuous. Oh yeah, and she's a chick in a sport that's 100% male in ownership, front office staffs, and players. Right or wrong, there's a lot of red flags in her resume.
