I am tired of the fraudulent and corrupt activity by Goodell and his minions. Here is my letter - it's probably a bit ridiculous and won't be taken seriously, but worth it in my mind:
This may seem insignificant, but please let me explain. The NFL is involved in corrupt and fraudulent activities and is doing so without worry of any punishment. The Bountygate and Deflategate issues are causing irreparable harm to fans, players, owners, and local sports organizations. Millions of dollars are being lost (or potentially being lost) due to loss of salaries, endorsements, gambling wages, potential misses of playoff income to owners/players, and even former players not receiving money (spent on falsely-claimed "independent" reports by Ted Wells and fraudulent investigations / prosecutions) for injuries that include brain injuries from concussions. The NFL front office is becoming littered with former N.Y. Jets personnel who appear to be behaving in devious schemes to create a false parity in the league by weakening other teams. The New England Patriots were docked a first round and a fourth round draft pick and $1,000,000 when the organization was proclaimed to have no hand in this supposed deflation of footballs. This not only costs the organization the fine amount, but it also artificially changes the competitive balance in the league. This potentially could lead to more millions of dollars in revenue loss. The NFL with its arbitrary and capricious penalties is also costing the NFLPA union millions of dollars to defend themselves from such ridiculous penalties and monetary fines. There are strong theories out there that suggest owners from other clubs are conspiring with the commissioner of the league, the supposed "defender of the shield", to falsely penalize the team and star player because they can't beat them fairly on a field of play. This is, essentially, GAME-FIXING! The NFL, with its uncorrected false leaks about incorrect air pressures to win public approval, has gone too far. Roger Goodell is the commissioner for all teams - not just for select owners. Tom Brady had an impeccable reputation that is now sullied by these rulings by Goodell, and this is potentially costing him millions of dollars in endorsement losses. Sean Payton of the New Orleans Saints lost an entire year's salary (and the Saints lost 2 second round draft picks) for what is now being seen in the light as another fraudulent investigation / punishment. Goodell has been caught in many lies, including one by a Federal judge, and he and his cronies need to be exposed. Goodell stated that Brady (with ZERO proof) was involved in a scheme that affected the integrity of the game. Goodell and his cohort are the ones really involved in a scheme - a scheme to swindle the owners, organizations, players, and, especially, the paying fans. We, as fans, have a right to fair games and to have these shady acts exposed. This country was built as a fair and just society - there can be no exceptions. Again, millions of dollars are at stake related to corrupt behaviors of the owners and the commissioner conspiring. Does the NFL deserve a FIFA-type investigation? I believe so.
