    Me too. Had he never wanted the job, George W. Bush wouldn't be President right now.

    Correct me if I'm wrong, but If he makes it all the way through his current contract, he'll be the first baseball commissioner that didn't get fired or die while in office...

    I am available.

    My first duty would be to enact a rule that would call for the execution, on sight, of all fans who rush the field and attack a player or official. The 7th inning stretch would be the perfect opportunity to bring these idiots out on the diamond and pick them off one by one.

    2nd rule. No more DH. If you can't field, get your lazy fat ass out of baseball.

    3. Random drug testing goes into effect immediately. If you refuse the testing, you don't play, simple as that.

    4. Screw the luxury tax, we're going to a hard salary cap.

    5. The entire financial system of baseball will be divided by 10. Ticket prices, salaries, etc. all will be decreased by a factor of 10.

    I know the Union will basically try to take my life for all these rules, but I'm willing to bargain. Hookers will be provided free of charge in all baseball clubhouses after every game.

    Now hire me.

    You can be in charge of setting up the free hookers. You can test them out and decide which ones are fit for hooking. ;)

    ...and after drapg gets gunned down by a sniper hired by the union, I'll gladly take his place. :)

    How about no tobacco use during games and a ban on all tobacco products in clubhouses?

    For some reason, I don't think MadMax wants that job. Baqui99 can test to see if they like it in the pooper though.

    All swole up in a fatty fat Caddy Escalade pimped out.

    My favorite Bud moment: Calling the all-star game a tie.... PATHETIC

    Not something my league wants to see.

    No ties when I'm Commish. We'll go to Homerun Derby. Each league picks its top 3 bombers and they duke it out.

    Fans will be happy with all the homerun balls they can catch and we'll never have a stupid tie again.

    And to speed up the game... we'll have women in bikinis at each base, except home. And we'll have hotties in the dugout. Now batters won't waste time when their up at bat. They'll want to hurry up and get a hit to get to first base or they'll want to hurry up and strike out so they can fraternize some more in the dugout.

    Hot women... The answer to all that is wrong with baseball.

    In which case there will also be mirrors at each base.
