How to be a total failure and yet profit immensely...

...lie, too. Something for George W. Bush to consider (say, baseball will need a new commissioner in 2013, unless Bud lies again and signs for another extension).

Bud Selig [click at own risk] on Thursday was given a three-year extension as baseball commissioner through the 2012 season. Financial terms weren't released, of course, but Selig received $14.5 million in the 12 months ending Oct. 31, 2005, according to MLB's last available tax return. Selig insisted when his last extension was done that he'd be retiring after it expired following the 2009 season. This sets him up as commissioner through age 78.
