So Roger whom did nothing wrong should get fired for another man's sins (Rice beating his fiance')?

Why? Because he ruled punishment too softly on another man's sins? Wow, a country where grace is preached.

I really hate America these days...because the streets rejoice over this stuff.



This is some A+ level spin. You should start your resume cover letter with this shite when you send it to Park Avenue...

Yeah but they operate in a self imposed socialist system. (Profit sharing)

Put into to proper context while the media fuel for more blood.

It's just ridiculous how the PC machine works these days

It's just all wrong and it completely manipulates people..It's sinful

I don't know all the facts but I break it down

who hit the woman?
Who is pressing charges?

Player got his contract torn up

Case closed!

Roger Goodell isn't stepping down. He's not getting fired. He's not going anywheres. This thread is so stupid.

In the sports media world, it's hard to top a scandal with the NFL. It isn't going away and Goodell is having the scandal put right at his feet.

Why not?

His job is to protect the brand image and be invisible.

He has now tarnished that image and become a bigger focus than the actual league, albeit for the moment.

The SJWs are locked on now.

Congress is involved.

Oh, and if you think he is the reason the league is profitable, you're a moron.

Let's assume that the NFL had the full video early on (and are lying about it now). Why on earth would they only give a slap on the wrist to Rice, knowing that the full video existed and could be leaked?

Exactly..and it will be Roger.

The sponsors will eventually pressure owners to make a concession to the enormous negative press which is increasing hourly. The threat to the bottom line will be the end of Roger.

Because Goodell miscalculated enormously; he is surrounded by sycophants so no one said, hey this is really dumb....

Consider this scenario:

Ray Rice walks in Roger's office with his wife and confessed every detail and even showed Roger the video .

Starts balling and asking for mercy for forgiveness from the league and to try to keep the whole thing private because it's a family matter?

Wife tells Roger, "We've sorted out our issues and we are still getting married. He has never hit me before and I love him..."

Roger then says "I've got suspend him for some time here even though it's really between you two, the league image and all, well, you understand?"

Mistakes made, forgiveness granted.. That's called being a human being.

But now Roger is in the fire? for what?

Full disclosure: I'm not a saints fan. To say he did "nothing wrong" is pretty myopic given the facts that have come out in relation to his being the commissioner of a multi-billion dollar entertainment enterprise.

Because of the bloodlust of the media which is a reflection of the American public.

Part of the incompetence. Should have interviewed then separately since it was an investigation
