That's a good job by the fans and well deserved by Goodell.
Goodell gave Ray Rice a two game suspension for punching out his fiancé, gave Greg Hardy a four game suspension after being convicted for beating up his girlfriend....and then suspended Tom Brady four games because he might have known some footballs were deflated. Deflate Gate was an embarrassing year long debacle.
This is the man who keeps forcing teams to play games in London, and has foisted upon us all Thursday Night Football, almost always a snoozer of a game as the teams only have a few days to prepare.
Under Goodell's leadership the league has changed the rules to favor offense, one cannot harm a hair on a wide receiver's pretty head. The Instant Replay Regime is ruining the game as every play is micro-analyzed to oblivion. Replay has become a fourth part of the game as important as offense, defense and special teams.
Oh!, and players kneeling for the National Anthem? Goodell says no problem.
We've seen sports commissioners who were unpopular. We've seen sports commissioners to whom the fans were indifferent. But we've never seen a commissioner loathed the way the NFL fans loath Goodell.
