I'm sure Sean Payton at some point said, "I'm sorry. I got it wrong". But as we know , CSP had no recourse except to accept his punishment. So it's good to be king when you have no one to answer to except the ownners and sponsors. The ownners need to step up to the plate and deal with Roger's performance or lack thereof. They owe the fans and the sponsors nothing less.

Money. That's his performance, so the owners will do nothing until the machine stops making so much of it.

unfortnately, rg could take all the shite that I give about this, wrap it in hundies, put it on my porch in a pattern spelling out his name and light it on fire; and I'd still tune in to watch pregame next saints game.

That's why nothing will be done

All I can keep thinking right now is that he's just giving "them" more rope.

Watching the guy get thrown out while screaming "Don't put me in the elevator" was pretty worthwhile. Other than that just a bunch of bs

There will be, once it is cemented that Goodell lied about prior knowledge of the internal elevator video. Like Payton, Goodell will pay for lying.

If this in fact happens, then yes. Hypocrite.

Otherwise they are not the same. Payton is directly responsible for how his coaches coach. Goodell is not remotely responsible for his players conduct off the field. What he is responsible for is how the NFL reacts, and the initial reaction was far too weak. That's the only wrongdoing by Goodell at this point.

I assert they are completely different until new/more/different information surfaces.

Truth or consequences. Accountability or above the law. The premise is the same while the indiscretion involves different circumstances. Hypocrisy abounds from the top down.

This is the problem with our society. We need to live by the same standards that we demand of our "professional" athletes.The only difference is that they are under a microscope and we are under the radar. This is NOT just NFL an problem.

Nobody is blaming Goodell for Ray Rice's actions. He is under scrutiny for how it was handled, I.e. supposedly not watching the video or even worse sweeping it under the rug, and the weak punishment that was issued when knowing the severity. Whether Goodell was directly responsible for the above doesn't matter, he overseas it.

Same as Payton being blamed by Goodell for not overseeing his coaches thoroughly enough. It is indeed a similar situation.

He is responsible that mistakes that players make and the consequences are dealt with equally.

Doing favors for an owner by being EXTREMELY lenient and turning a blind eye (this honestly deserved a 6 or 8 week suspension) is unethical and unfair. The same "unfair" bullshite he spewed when he dropped the banhammer on the saints

He fricks up bounty gate investigation

Saints pay the price.

He fricks up situation will the refs.

Packers get screwed in the bad call game.

He screws up punishment for Ray Rice,

Ray and his victim wife pay the price.


It goes on and own, he is like the Goldman Sachs of football, the more he fricks up the more money he makes.
