[Cheney Killed Bambi]

James A. Quinn of Weil, Gotshal & Manges, which represented the NFL Players Association, said she had a fast grasp.

"This is somebody that is an intellectual superstar. A very bright woman," he said. "I suspect that from what I've seen from her in the 2nd Circuit that she is able to take very complex problems and analyze them. She's a good umpire. She calls balls and strikes well."
