RG is most likely hoping this blows over with all the Super Bowl press that will be out there next week.

Goddell should be put in pads and the Saints should get to nominate three players to helmet to helmet roughing the passer hit him.

I know but it appears the state of Lousiana will not allow this to blow over. Love the fact its not just Nola centric noise.

If you gave me a guess as to which starter would be sidelined by a stupid health condition and miss the biggest game of his career for the Saints I'd definitely have picked Ben Watson. If you told me I was wrong and to pick again, I'd still pick Ben Watson.

The thing that sucks is that Hill (who is better than Watson anyway) gets injured on the first possession and then we have no real fricking TE for the rest of the game - a game in which TE was going to be such a vital position to help exploit the one weakness in the Rams' defense - their linebackers. Just another of 1,000 little tiny things that added up to help us lose our 2nd Super Bowl appearance.

Every question will be about this if he doesn't address it beforehand. They know this. Lawyers aren't allowing them to make a statement

Wow. Can't say I'm surprised because I expect it from Watson, but man that was eloquent.

How hot is Roger's seat right now?

Has Roger Goodell and any other NFL team ever been at such odds?

You know he has to hate the saints organization for all the issues its given his tenure. And how many issues his tenure has impacted the saints.

Other teams have had controversy, yet no other team has had such scrutiny.

No way he isnt biased.


When he dies..every January 20, I want to make a yearly trek to his resting place, just to piss on his grave.

Mate were you always so left wing? Like, I kind of agree with you on this one, but you're really far left.

Good stuff mate. I was socially liberal once too and then things went way too far in terms of trans rights and militant athletes and I reeled it back in and became alt-right

It is amazing what a man can accomplish when he has nothing to loose.

It's a sad state that player cant openly speak out because they fear what RG can do to them. The players next contract needs to be extremely reworked to take that power a was at from goodell.

That was great, but I would love for someone else who is a little less eloquent to come out and just eviscerate Roger Goodell.

As of 8:55 pm this was the #2 story on ESPN.com.

Goodell's arse is starting to sweat...
