I have had a copy editor change something to the opposite of my meaning, under circumstances where a typical reporter wouldn't have had the opportunity to change it back.

You say Goodell is a victim of his underlings here.

I do not give him a pass on that yet as I find it believable that he was a willing participant.

I thought the person on SOSH own explanation was pretty much on target. S/he suggested that they're too lazy and/or they're deathly afraid of being tagged a "homer" by their peers. Both good answers, I thought, especially the second one. I've thought for years that the homer label scares the bejesus out of some of them. I listen to a guy like Lou Merloni and at times he begins to vigorously defend the local teams and then seems to catch himself before he goes too far with someone like Benz, the ultimate troll, on his show.

You see that phenomena here.. on a sight called patsfans.com for god's sake.

Look at how quickly and with such vehemence and disdain that word gets tossed around here.

Homer. Sheep. Clone. Ostrich.
