Reading that entire piece made my skin crawl. What a smug, rich kid existence. Reminds me of the great quote (I'm paraphrasing here and I wish I knew to whom it should be attributed), "When he was 5 years old he woke up one day on third base and thought he'd hit a triple." My other immediate reaction is that the owners are a group of arrogant, entitled jerk-offs, as well. They and Goodell deserve one another. Honestly, if it weren't for my 55 year love of the Patriots, I'd tell the NFL to go take a flying f### for itself. But, I won't...
 
too bad he missed the PATHOLOGICAL LIAR part of Goodell's "character"

I love this BS by these NY guys who claim "and I'm a Pats fan! Really I am!"...GFY azzole

He's not going to "say" that Goodell's a lying ******* but he certainly shows you that he's a lying *******. Leibovich asks Goodell if he saw the movie, "Concussion." Goodell answers that he doesn't have time for movies but in the same breath he said he had taken his daughters to see, "The Intern."
 
If this is the same guy that was on the Dan Lebatard show this morning when asked if anyone he spoke to for article made his skin crawl, he said he didn't want to call anyone out and Dan pushed him and he said something like "he would say Roger Goddell, he didn't feel he was getting a real interview"
They asked him if he felt Roger was a extremely intelligent guy and he said no he didn't get that at all. Lol
 
Roger Goodell is a bully. The owners hired him to bully the players and take away money from them. He also bullied the refs. He bullies the networks. It's what they wanted.

But, as Mr. Kraft found out, sometimes the bully turns on you.
 
"When he was 5 years old he woke up one day on third base and thought he'd hit a triple."

It's Barry Switzer. "Some people are born on third base and go through life thinking they hit a triple." Often attributed to Ann Richards talking about GHW Bush.

Yeah, Ann was known for a different barb:

Poor George, he can't help it. He was born with a silver foot in his mouth.

Thanks!
 
Can't even read it. Those people are so over the top smug and condescending just makes me angry. It's why I don't buy jerseys anymore.

Actually, GHW Bush was a pretty good baseball player. He captained the Yale baseball team that made it to second place in the college World Series in the late 40s. Though he was born on third base, he had the ability to hit a triple.
 
Does making that much money really allow one to sleep at night, knowing how you earned it? Being a sleazy pin cushion for the owners? To absorb all of the flat out lies, BS and dishonesty? We all know the reason he makes upwards of 54mm a yr. It's despicable. The poster boy of self entitled, (had everything handed to me), country club jacket wearing , thanks daddy, POS!!. ...And just remember, this is exactly what the owners want. A fall guy to take all of the heat off of them. And it works perfectly. The media attack him, and the owners move along (nothing to see here). Its so fvking sickening. Jeez, I hate the prick, and the whole, greedy system. What a beautiful product they are destroying, to make as much money as possible! "The American way" = "Get the $, at any cost". And there is no sign of it slowing down. Kraft knows. He goes along with the system, and allows GoTohell to be "The bad guy" that all the Pats fans hate. It takes a special kind of sleaze ball, mommas boy, to do what this this prick does. And a 54mm pillow helps him sleep just fine at night. I just hope,one day, there is a raid and shake up in the NFL. Because there are illegal and unethical things going on. They think they are untouchable. And that will be their downfall. One day someone will get through the cracks in the armour. You can see small steps towards that kind of thinking in the Framegate fiasco. TB played his cards perfectly. Patience. Hold off on the yelling and screaming, and allow them to bury themselves. That TB, he's a smart cookie. .... Rant off.
 
Brady got handed a 4 game suspension by this goddamned moron...AND this phucking idiot is fighting a LOSS in federal court over it and wasting tens of millions of dollars trying to perpetuate his lies....meanwhile, THIS is what he merits as a TWO GAME SUSPENSION.




Goodell is an obvious goddamned azzole that needs to be PHYSICALLY and FORCIBLY removed from society for the next 40 years of his putrid existence.
 
In case you were wondering.."is this guy Joker serous?" about the constant Goodell bashing...I give you further evidence marked Exhibit 10,822....

autographing Jet fan's jerseys while hob nobbing with the Jets...where does it end with this goddamned cretin?

Ann Richards at the 1988 Democratic convention that nominated Michael Dukakis, referring to George Bush, the first.

I didn't think that I could drop MLB after a lifetime of being a fan, but I did. And I never missed it one bit. It actually made me feel better knowing that I wasn't supporting the game anymore. I expect to feel the same way when I dump the NFL after Brady leaves.
