| re: More Evidence Unraveling-The Ornstein E-mail Does anyone know if Goodell was a lawyer before he became employed by the NFL. I know many commissioners have been lawyers prior to their stint as commissioner and I am wondering if the same goes for Goodell. If he was than this makes this even more outrageous. That a lawyer would go off of this bullshitee evidence and penalize a million dollar entity in this way. It's clear that if this whole situation was put in front of a judge it would be sent back to Goodell in a split second and they'd laugh in his face. Reply • Back to Top |
| It is truly unbelievable that such a large organization (N.O. Saints) can be crumbled by one man's interpretation of unworthy, misconstrued acts. Impeach Goodell and get REVENGE. LINK This post was edited on 5/11 at 6:11 am Reply • Back to Top |

| Goddell is starting to look more and more like gilda radner as emily litella. In a few weeks I can see him saying, "Never Mind". Emily Litella emily litella This post was edited on 5/11 at 8:18 am Reply • Back to Top |

not saying what he's doing is illegal smartass, just saying that there's no way that the NFL or the NFLPA should have let one man get so much power without giving another group the ability to veto tyranny  Reply • Back to Top |
quote: Yeah, because there has never been a company in history that was run by a single person with unquestionable power...There's nothing wrong with being butt hurt because Goodell is screwing Saints fans good, but there's no need to start making shite up like Goodell does. Reply • Back to Top |

| It may be a private company, but it has a serious public relations problem. Most opposing fans are dicks, and just wanna say "You got caught, get over it," but there's a lot of stink going on. I'm not too happy about it. Reply • Back to Top |
| Digging Ornstein info up opens up a can of worms. As reported by Deadspin two months ago, Ornstein supposedly funded the "bounty program." But if that's the case, why was Jonathan Vilma suspended for an entire season for funding the program? Reply • Back to Top |
quote: This isn't the 1930s. There also these things called injunctions that aren't very nice either. Nobody cares about all that power unless it's used in a way that isn't in the company's best interest or if it affects the company in an extremely negative light. You're seeing both of these conditions slowly make their way up to the surface. Screw the movie......it's time to just make a soap opera. Reply • Back to Top |
quote: understatement of the Damn century. As someone pointed out earlier somewhere, if Drew Brees came out and said its bull shite ( he basically did) then I BELIEVE it is bull shite... I trust brees that much. That is just the tip of the ice berg as to why i think this whole pay to injure with all the 50k pages of evidence is bull shite to the fullest extent Reply • Back to Top |
quote: It isn't a private business, but didn't Bobby Jindal just get the LSU president fired basically because he didn't do exactly what Jindal told him to do? Yes, he could be an abrasive jerk (like Payton is to Goodell), but could Lombardi do anything about it when all was said and done? Reply • Back to Top |
