According to a recent Sports Business Journal report, the league's $9 billion debt — much of it tied to new stadiums — exceeds the amount of any other sports league.
It seems unfathomable that a league flush in popularity and revenues that exceed $6 billion per year is facing any type of financial crisis. The NFL set a paid attendance record for a sixth consecutive season with its most recent campaign (22,256,502) and rakes in more than $3.7 billion per year from network and cable TV contracts.
Yet Goodell expressed concern during his news conference.
