Goodell makes $21 million a year to be a shill for the owners,who are his puppet masters.He’s worthless and weak.

The higher ups at the NFL are ivy-league educated elites and Manhattan socialites.

Most of them probably don’t know a single person that voted for Trump.

Here is my (incomplete) list of demands before I consider watching NFL football:

1. Public apology from Goodell.
2. Rules for respecting flag and national anthem strictly enforced.
3. Joe Lockhart replaced with nonpartisan spokesman.
4. No politicking by players/coaches on field. That includes BLM and calls for “Unity”.

Feel free to add your own.

Goodell is allowing selective PC rule violations. Like to see some Pro-Life athletes ink “Cherish the unborn” on their uniforms and see just how much the NFL apologists will support their free speech.

“President Trump told a gathering of the Republican Party’s richest donors”

It has to TOTALLY SUCK to be these swamp creatures and have to subject yourself to that neanderthal Trump...just to continue getting goodies from DC.

One can only imagine what they’re saying to each other...especially after the job Roy Moore did on their buddies in Alabama.

5. The NFL puts its entire weight on the scales to put the kibosh on any further discussion of the issue by ESPN.

He works for the owners. They own the league.

Goodell is the owners’ puppet.

That is why we need him fired.

That would be an admission by the owners that they are honoring their fans (not the radical black players), take responsibility for their stupidity and have taken action to remedy the situation.

The almighty dollar will win on this one. NFL is all about money, when it slows down, they will start to rethink.
