Yeah me too, although I imagine with as fast as things are happening there may be a mood of ‘what the hell is happening here?’

Why? I did not hear any outrage from anyone when Ray Lewis and Frosty Rucker were playing.

What if they go back to GREEN? I think maybe the last NFL game I saw was when NBC was doing MNF and promoting its “Green Week,” so they did the halftime show in the dark. That was probably also the last time I watched NBC, come to think of it.

Goodell and the NFL are being targeted by leftists because they hate the game and the fact that it has made many people wealthy in the process.

Don't fall for this narrative.

Good. The NFL is a disaster. Hit the pocketbook. Object lessons are wondrous.

Goodell held a press conference today.
He was terrible. Kept talking about transparency,
but dodged questions.
He would have been better off hiding like he has been doing.

I stopped watching ALL NFL games when they let Michael Vick play again.

Disgusting organization.

The NFL legal staff probably told him "whatever you do, don't say anything."
