Goodell now comes to the forefront (NFL Commish-Jane Skinner's hubby)

Goodell's father, the late Charles Goodell, was a Republican congressman from western New York who in 1968 was appointed by Gov. Nelson A. Rockefeller to fill the Senate seat left vacant by the assassination of Robert F. Kennedy.

Charles Goodell, who died in 1987 at age 60, is perhaps best remembered for his shift from establishment Republican to critic of the Vietnam War and the Nixon White House when he moved from the House of Representatives to the U.S. Senate.

The younger Goodell, the second of four boys, is married to Jane Skinner, a Fox News anchor. She is the daughter of Sam Skinner, who served as secretary of Transportation and chief of staff under President George H.W. Bush.

Gorgeous couple!! I believe they have twins, and Pubbies, to boot ....

wow....I had no idea. Cool.

[STARWISE]

Very cool ... what a neat couple.

Bump for later

Outstanding! More of the establishment elite breeding so they can produce more of the same. Just what we need in all strata of our society, more people out of touch with the main stream of America.

Needn't sound so bitter ... it says that he got to where he is by being low key and competent .. that IS exactly what we need. I'd never heard of him before reading this article, and from watching her almost daily on Skinnerville, have never seen her put on airs. Sorry their breeding and upbringing offend you.

Goodell's wife, Jane Skinner, serves as a daytime news anchor on the FOX News Channel, providing news updates at the top and bottom of the hour.

Give the guy credit, he has great taste in women.

I heard that...she's a nice looking babe, not overly dolled up, just understated beauty. Now that Kimberly Collagenjoy-- she's another story.

I feel the same way about Linda Vester, although I think she might be more "dolled up" as you put it. You can be the judge, though:

I'm not bitter. I was making a personal observation. His dad was a rat and that causes me pause. Also, I'm not a supporter of power couples for the simple reason they don't relate to main stream Americans, they usually spend their time and energy looking down their noses at main stream Americans.

Just an unrelated note. I'm watching the Cowboys-Saints game on ESPN, and it's pretty disgusting how much they're trying to create a T. O. story. The sideline reporterette said she went to Terry Glenn and asked him if Parcells wasn't being too easy on T. O. and if Parcells shouldn't have called Owens "she".

They're so desperate to have a "blow up" story that they're trying to manufacture one.

I always listen to the radio broadcast. I'm such a homer.

Same here. I like a little partisanship in my sportscasting and for me there's no better homerism than right here. :)

Wasn't able to open your link but I'm guessing that's the Raiders broadcasting network. Just a hunch.

How bout them Cowboys! 17- Zip over the Aints at halftime.

Yup, good ol' 560 KSFO (for some reason I can't post external links). Hey where are they playing the Cowboys/Sains game? Looks like they're in Mobile.
