It's time for the NFL owners to fire this a-hole and move on with fixing the league's image and reputation that he has ruined.
Well, let's slow down there. The NFL has a serious problem with its players, as well. It's not fair to pin the actions of players such as Ray Rice, Ray McDonald, Greg Hardy, etc. on the commissioner.
However, it's his responsibility to enforce a code of conduct and stand by that code when issuing judgement on players actions. He has been remarkably inconsistent when it comes to this and, for that, I can see him being fired. I seriously doubt it, though. This is the most profitable the league has ever been and I'm sure in the owners eyes, RG is somewhat responsible for that.

I'd argue that the NFL is taking more of an image hit from Goodell's multiple botched investigations than they did from 1 player's elevator video of him knocking his wife out.
