Statement From NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell 2017 REGULAR ENGLISH
The following statement is in response to President Donald Trump’s comments last night...
STATEMENT FROM NFL COMMISSIONER ROGER GOODELL
The NFL and our players are at our best when we help create a sense of unity in our country and our culture. There is no better example than the amazing response from our clubs and players to the terrible natural disasters we've experienced over the last month. Divisive comments like these demonstrate an unfortunate lack of respect for the NFL, our great game and all of our players, and a failure to understand the overwhelming force for good our clubs and players represent in our communities.
Exactly. Here’s a taste of the wonderful views expressed by the NFL players in response to Trumps comments at last nights rally -
What a bunch of spoiled, rich, progressive assholes.
This comment by Roger should definately be replayed as much as possible to further cement nfls decline. But msm will spin it that trump caused it, not stupid Rogers attack on trump!! I mean what the heck is more divisive than your players kneeling during the national anthem! That’s not divisive Roger!!
Roger’s been hit in the head one too many times.

Goodell thinks this is about Trump.
It’s not about Trump.
I have empathy for a lot of people, but certainly none for the spoiled brat black athletes, multimillionaires who became wealthy from the good will of whites in this country.
Here is your rope Roger. Piss up.
Why are we even expected to respect the NFL? What arrogance.
[Whenever they say “unity” they mean “shut up and agree with me”.]
Yes, the “unity” of everyone agreeing to their position.
(owner of ESPN) Disney needs to remember that the culture of sports is fundamentally celebratory and unifying, not divisive. - Holman W. Jenkins, “Never mind Jemele Hill, ESPN Isn’t Doomed”But then, it’s an open question whether, to Hollywierd, profit is more important than “being woke” is.
As long as they keep making money he stays
Not only should Jerry Jones hold up Goodell’s contract renewal, but he is asking for more money! Jones should force Goodell to take a progressive pay cut of 5% for every month that the TV ratings and attendance goes down. First month is already in so Goodell’s check would be -5%. Next month with another decrease, another -5%.
I think what DJT said last night at the Alabama rally was PERFECT. The black NFL players acting like poverty pimps have exacerbated racial divisions in this country—and the chickens ate coming home to roost.
But the outrageous racial divisiveness we see now really got started with Barack Hussein Obama, the Race Baiter in Chief. Obama: the most racially divisive president in history, hands down the worst president of all time.
The NFL and our players are at our best when we help create a sense of unity in our country and our culture. There is no better example than the amazing response from our clubs and players to the terrible natural disasters we've experienced over the last month. Divisive actions by certain players like these demonstrate an unfortunate lack of respect for our fans, for the NFL, our great game and all of our players, and a failure to understand the overwhelming force for good our clubs and players represent in our communities.
Get off of the NFL drug, folks. It’s killing you.
Goodell is a big part of what’s wrong with the NFL and why I’m watching more college football.
When the NFL became a propaganda wing of the DNC and BLM, they started loosing support.
It is only going to get worse for the NFL
Race has nothing to do with it. Any white player who does the same thing should be treated accordingly.
True, Alberta’s Child, any player of any color showing disrespect for the flag and national anthem should be disciplined or fired.
But since it is the black players causing all the trouble, they get a free pass because—I’m shocked, shocked, I tell you—they are black.
We are seeing a President doing rule 12 of the ‘rules for radicals’ over and over and over.
Pick the target, freeze it, personalize it, polarize it..
