Lol what a joke this once great league has become.

Does that mean we will get more than one holding call from an O-Lineman when we are on defense?

There's an inverse relationship between Goodell's contract and my Sunday Ticket, then. I think I'm done.

Sounds like his extension was never a question........the real question is how much clout Jerry loss. No question he's loss some but I guess we'll see how much.

Jerry fought the good fight on this one and the other owners shoved it where the sun dont shine. Lets hope we dont get stripped of picks due to conduct detrimental.

What a joke.

No doubt corruption on some level involved.

As Jerry was saying, there was no hurry to get this done - a lot of time was left on his current contract. With all the controversy Goodell's decisions/lack of leadership/etc. have caused and they STILL went for it when they could have/should have waited to see if he could get them out of the very messes he originally mishandled? Only owners with a vested personal stock would do such an illogical extension at this time. Since it's obvious Jerry is NOT among those owners with a vested interest in the extension, this is bad news for the Cowboys.

I truly believe we will get shafted over and over again while the "Compensation Committee" members teams seem to get inexplicable breaks or leniency time and time again when it matters.

It sure makes keeping being a fan very hard at this time.

The owners love Gooddell. He takes flak for all of their crappy decisions.

I don't know why this is difficult to understand. The guy doesn't make any decisions - his sole purpose is to give someone to be mad at other than the owners.

$3.5m guaranteed with the ability to make up to $50m with incentives...That's a lot of incentives! The compensation committee screwed the pooch here, they should have followed Jerry's lead...No one knows how to put a deal together better than possibly one other person.

He is also the biggest chess piece between the owner's power struggles amongst themselves. Jerry just got checkmated.

This thread will not go well.

What a bum, be ready for a major lock out next CBA which is necessary at this point.

Jerry fought the good fight

"I'm gonna come after you with everything I have," Jones said. Then he mentioned Deflategate. "If you think Bob Kraft came after you hard, Bob Kraft is a ***** compared to what I'm going to do."

When Goodell starts sticking it to other teams, I sure hope Jerry puts his best KMA smile on and tells them where to shove it.....

I think a lockout/strike will happen no matter who is commissioner.

In fact, I think the upcoming lockout/strike is a big reason why the owners wanted to extend Goodell.

Wonder if he got his Jet and free health insurance for life?

Block Goodell from entering the city of Dallas.
