Roger Goodell contract extension

[RoboQB]

Damn. I remember when he signed his prior deal he said it would be his last contract as commissioner.
Instead, the demise of the league continues.

The Leagues figurehead who takes all the slings and arrows while the owners count their cash!!!!

The last figure head took no slings because he was great.

Yes I don't need generational wealth. I will live my life and never have to worry again. I would retire the second my contract was up and I had the 60 mil.

Isn't it interesting that people who don't have that type of money say the first thing they would do is retire, yet those that have that kind of money never retire.

 

[Mannix]

I’ll be at the draft in KC. If I see that clown I’m going to punch him

That crooked piece of trash will probably be flanked by Willie Lanier and Bobby Bell....probably have on a Len Dawson jersey....anything to curtail the embarrassing boos. The again, the Chiefs get treated like Green Bay and Pittsburgh....so why would they boo.

It's because people who have that kind of money are driven to always have more. I am content. I will never have that money because I don't have the drive.

despite the fans dislike for him. the NFL is most popular sport in the US. its now a 365 news thing. he has made the league more popular and made the owners lots of money. so why should the owners get rid of him? his job is to make the league more successful and the owners richer. he has done his job to a T

Cap expansion is commensurate with owner income. They have to love him.

Demise? They just negotiated the largest sports media contract in history - $110 billion over 11 years - on multiple platforms.

The owners love him, he does his job well, takes all the heat.

 

[Hardline]

Will any owner that votes against Goodell getting extended be given the "Jerry Jones" treatment?

 

[zrinkill]

Just a puppet for the old school owners.

 

[Diehardblues]

Goodell despite some criticism from fans over his strict Personal Conduct Policy , has emerged as one of the great Commissioners in modern history navigating thru several controversial issues while continuing to grow the iconic shield representing the owners.

It’s like Hell extending Lucifer’s tenure……looking forward to the extension of a corporation more interested in public relations rather than protecting the sanctity of the game of football

This is 100% correct. RG has been a disaster and I bet if you polled the fans 80pct would rip the guy. It doesn’t matter though because the dumb owners are all in on virtue signaling, going international, and “expanding” the fan base. RG is part of the club. Real fans can eat the sheet sandwich.

No, you won't, but if you do make sure it's filmed. lol

He doesn't work for the fans though, he works for the owners. And profits are at an all-time high. I hate the guy though. From what I have heard he wants to step down, but they have no one in line to replace him. So until they find someone to take his place he is likely "stuck" taking extensions for millions and millions of dollars.

Yep, demise.
I'm not allowed to elaborate.

Then quit breaking the rules. It's really not hard.

RG has been an excellent Commish, navigating this league through very very muddy waters.
