Bud SeligDavid Stern orRoger GoodellI would have to go with Stern, he's really changed the face of the NBA lately, its gotten a bit more popular lately.Goodell is next, he doesnt really have to do anything though, his league sells itself...he's been the ironfist it seems though.and Selig last, the whole Roids incident has destroyed him.

Selig saved baseball. Yeah, I know a lot of people won't agree but I really think he did. Realignment, wildcard, interleague. All Selig's doing. Right now, looking the other way on the steroids issue looks bad and I'm glad they are taking steps to correct it... but at the time it needed to be done. Baseball is breaking attendance record and merchandising revenue records year after year and a lot of that has to do with Selig's efforts...Goodell hasn't done anything except suspend a few guys for being repetitive fuckups... he is riding the coattails of two EXCELLENT commissioners before his time...

then again its his first year and he has had some big time stuff to deal with that the others didntand Selig did do well with the wildcard but turned his head on the roids scandal thats a plague now.

1) Stern-good solid commish that most approve of....league is probably the hardest to advertise of the big 32) Selig-steriods ring is the only thing holding him down, that and the tie at the AS game few years back3) Goodell-you can't rate a commish after this little amount of time

If you know what Stern had/has done for the NBA as far as generating revenue with the NBA's repulsive image to most folks, you would have to say the his work has by far been the best

Goodell needs a couple more years before you can compare. Stern over Selig.And Selig wasn't blind to steroids. The steroid-fueled home run chase was part of his "saving baseball".
