Report: Bill Belichick walks away from Goodell speech

It's no secret the Deflategate controversy caused a rift between commissioner Roger Goodell and the New England Patriots.

Head coach Bill Belichick doesn't seem to be bothering to hide his personal feelings for the commissioner at the NFL annual spring meetings this week.

Goodell is giving a speech to head coaches, owners, etc. in a banquet room. Belichick is walking down the hall in the opposite direction.

— Jeff Howe (@jeffphowe) March 20, 2016 It's not clear whether Belichick was intending to make a statement against Goodell with his lack of attendance, but it would certainly fit his personality.

He seems very cold to me. To each his own.

...

He is professionally, mainly because he dislikes the press and NFL management. Who here on FR doesn’t have the same feelings?

“Roger Goodell paid $34 million in 2014 compensation.”

-——but Goodell is destroying the game I loved. Liberal PC faggot...——

Yup...I was watching the first round of the draft and Goodell was very obviously booed by the audience when he was at the podium...

I was not surprised he didn’t get junk thrown at him....

The owners are idiots to keep him...

Funny...I thought it was a Federal judge.

By the way, I guess the HGH investigation on Manning will just die.

I have similar feelings, but I would be vocal about it. I think his decision to remain removed is the wiser one though...
