The Associated Press reports secretary of state Condoleezza Rice is not applying for the newly opened post of NFL commissioner - not now, anyhow, her spokesman said carefully Monday, March 20. Rice is enjoying being secretary of state "at the moment," spokesman Sean McCormack said.

New England Patriots owner Bob Kraft seems to be in Rice's corner for the football post.

and he probably turned down because A) Her current job is considered more important, and B) she wouldn't have gotten the job.
