Do you think the NFL is going to continue to make money after this stupid comment by Goodel?
The NFL will probably have the worst weekend in decades. I am sure more than a few people will notice.
I did that several years ago.
Prepare for Hi Tech to concern troll preach at you for the next 10 comments. That dude loves to hear itself babble.
Packers fan here. I didn’t always watch but usually had the Monday and Thursday nights NFL games on a tablet with the sound turned down. This season I purposely have not watched any of the midweek games.
On the other hand, major league baseball seems to have eliminated most of the African American players from their ranks (something to do with no fathers to play catch with) and replaced them with black guys from the Caribbean. They don't seem to have the problems the NFL does. Maybe the NFL should consider financing american football programs at universities in Venezuela, Cuba, Puerto Rico and the DR?
Every time he sticks his head up to make a liberally endorsed weaselly PC or anti-Trump remark he will lose more NFL fans.
The NFL and our players are at our best when we help create a sense of unity in our country and our culture.”
They have created a sense of disunity in our country and now complain that we respond with rejecting their message? What hypocrites. There was nothing that we liked more as a family than watching something that was apolitical. But no, liberals had to mess that up too. Thanks for nothing!
Goodel; what a jerk. To the NFL owners, fire him before you lose your collective a$$e$.
This is their idea of unity
He still cannot see the wrongness of acting exactly like those Left Wing thugs such as Black Lives Matter do every day--
And just how often does that happen, Roger? Maybe Rog’ could explain how much money the players are actually paid, and why the so-called protests against the Star Spangled Banner are not considered, by him, to be divisive.
But this ridiiculous piece of fluff from Goodell is a good sign, it means something will now be done, even if it takes a little time.
“”” Divisive comments like these demonstrate an unfortunate lack of respect for the NFL”””
WOW. The NFL believes the game deserves respect as if the silly game were that important.
I am not a football watcher so my lack of interest has no financial impact.
I can only hope the diehard NFL fans say enough is enough and get rid of their addiction and never watch a silly NFL game again.
“””pretty much a childs game. only sport that you really dont play again after high school for 98% of people.”””
Exactly!!!!!
somehow it just doesn’t seem like a smart business decision to me for the head of the NFL to pick a fight with President Trump ..
Pittsburgh’s Rooney family and confused Jeffrey Lurie in Philadelphia undoubtedly agree with Goodell. Questionable whether there exists a majority of Leaguests owners who even understand their bottomline financial interest any longer. They had better wake up and smell the coffee soon.
At a time like this, Trump needs to go all ‘Christopher Walken’ on Goodell!
Going to the games, even wearing clown shirts, doesn’t faze Goodell. Only when fans go to the game as empty seats, will the smart NFL people take notice.
That statement is truly shocking arrogance.
