Integrity28 Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 On now. It's becoming clear to me. The opening statements by Kraft on media day, mock outrage about being owed an apology by the NFL, was 100% posturing to give the appearance of distance between Goodell and Kraft. Goodell is talking about it being "his job" today. Their doing damage control on the conflict of interest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Integrity28 Posted January 30, 2015 Author Share Posted January 30, 2015 The hypocrisy around strutinizing Marshawn Lynch's wardrobe is mind-numbing. Ray Rice's original suspension from Goodell for hitting his fiance = 2 games. Marhsawn Lynch's threat to be suspend for gold shoes = 1 game. Patriots caught cheating = PR campaign to get them off the hook. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JustInFudge Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 He's making the NFL unwatchable. I've never cared less about the league than I do. It's got worse over the years too...used to be king, now it's a daytime drama joke of a league. He's officially turned into the WWE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Freemanm Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 It's been obvious for several years now that Goodell is completely incompetent and has no idea of what football really is. I hope he gets fired Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Integrity28 Posted January 30, 2015 Author Share Posted January 30, 2015 I'm not watching/listening. What was the question (and "answer")? She pointed how owners pay for the NFL, and the NFL pays for Goodell's salary, as well as paying the lawyer they hired to independently do the deflategate investigation. Then she asked about how it isn't still a conflict of interest, given that the owners are basically paying for the investigation. Goodell bellowed about the attorney's reputation and integrity, and then snarked at Rachel Nichols that she could pay for it if she wants. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OuttaSightPF Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 Ok I didn't turn it off. And he almost sh*t his pants when answering that direct question about how he favors Kraft.

Scott Dierking Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 Commissioner is nothing more than a puppet for owners-and that is in all sports/leagues. They do not have the best interest of the game in mind, nor the fans-It is all about $$$ to the owners. Goodell pushes that agenda harder than most.

Charlie Brown Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 Any thinking fan knows that Goodell is incompetent. The sad part is the owners don't care they are becoming obscenely wealthy but the game which is helping increase their pockets is being systematically destroyed.

DaBallhawk Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 Does Goodell think he should take a pay cut? "That's up to the owners. They evaluate my compensation every year. I don't argue." Why would you. You fat corrupt turd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goodell is talking about it being "his job" today. Their doing damage control on the conflict of interest. I never paid much attention to the office of the commissioner until Roger Goodell took over and made a sham out of it. He can't hold a candle to Pete Rozelle or Paul Tagliabue. He makes things too much about HIMSELF, where as the other guys seemed to do what was BEST for the league, and not their respective buddies. I know Rozelle was close to Rams owner Carroll Rosenbloom, but never made decisions based on that friendship. Goodell will buy Kraft's bulls*it explanation hook, line and sinker.

Tagliabue wouldn't have punished a serial killer, no backbone at all. It was a welcome change IMO. Tagliabue wouldn't have spent the last 2 weeks coming up with a strategy to help the Patriots brush this under the rug, while shifting the focus of "discipline" to Marshawn Lynch's ******* shoes and bad interview manners. To think that Marshawn was almost suspended for the NFC Championship game, which would have absolutely impacted the outcome of that game, for his shoes is insane. Especially in contrast to hearing "weather deflates footballs selectively" bullsh*t for 2 weeks while the league does everything they can to ensure Brady and Belicheat are part of this game.

I'd bet money that the NFL PR team is helping Kraft come up with what role he's supposed to play opposite Goodell in order to make the non-punishment outcome look more legit.

jack48 Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 He does not even try to project that he is on some higher moral plain than the rest of his minions. Old time commissioners were at least holier-than-thou, which is the way we expected them to behave. A commissioner making 44 million a year is an obscenity to me. It is clear only one thing matters to him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
