The Commissioner finally has a new contract.
Per a source with knowledge of the situation, the NFL’s Compensation Committee has informed all owners that a new contract for Commissioner Roger Goodell has been executed.

Just rearranging the deck chairs before the boat sinks.
I hope they lose even more money now.
This is ludicrous!
Goodell will lead the NFL to a forgotten legacy.
In a generation, people will ask, “Why did you old guys watch that stuff anyway?”
There won’t be a good answer going forward from today (or earlier, actually, since Ray Rice and deflate-gate).
I still like to watch the NFL at the local bar, but I watch about 25 percent as much as I used to. It’s EASY to get a seat at the bar now on any given Sunday, Monday or Thursday.
If an honest history of this is ever published people will be agape at the utter stupidity of it all, offending their paying customers again and again and again, all while demonstrating just how little they need taxpayer subsidy with such cavalier disregard of expense. $100 million to liberal social causes? Sure, here ya go. $50M plus the latest jet and family healthcare insurance for life, for the commissioner who has been responsible for this disaster? Sure, here ya go. They’re going to be squeezed on both ends, sales and subsidies. Jerry Jones needs to sell before the bottom really falls out. Consider it a stop loss.
No longer a fan, but if Roger is getting $50M contract, the owners are dumber than I thought.
NFL: No Future Left
They deserve everything they get outta his sorry ass from now on.
I don’t want tho hear any complaints, regrets, remorse or whines. They voted for it they got it, now live with it.................
No Fans Left.....................
IF I was Jerry Jones I would put the franchise up for sale.
Let me be the first to congratulate the Commissioner.
It is now my life’s work to get him fired!
Blackmail on some of the owners? It would be one possibility...
Works on members of Congress, and Goodell has demonstrated that he is nothing but a political animal.
Also known as a “Suicide Pact”.
Does his pet insurance benefit cover his pet players?
Remember New Orleans also re-elected Ray Nagin after Katrina. Go figure.
The antics of the football players were reason enough not to watch NFL football. Renewing this contract for Roger Goodall is proof we should not watch NFL Football.
Prolly
Yep - NFL peaked in the early 2000’s. I think Jerry will keep in family to the end. Stephen is running ops now — too much a part of the Jones family identity. But NFL owning teams is a long term loser.
