Clearly you aren't reading my words.So I take it you think Goodell has a positive image overall amongst the "lazy" fanbase? Interesting Baghdad Bobbian response.
I am responding to your position that goodell is responsible for your misunderstanding that he makes decisions for on field discipline.I take exception to how you have characterized my position.
I never stated that I disagreed with the Sun decision. I also understand Cottrell's and Hanks' job function- which is what I said in one on my initial responses.
My position is that Goodell -and Goodell alone is responsible for his image and public perception. Along with the perception you have - which I agree with, has an image of being indecisive, lacking in transparency and incredibly inconsistent in policy enforcement.
Why you are accusing me of taking positions i havent even commented on and calling me lazy is a bit over the top and unwarranted.
Your perception is wrong. You cannot blame goodell that you don't pay attention to which issues he is responsible for or that you think everything involving discipline is the same.Wrong. Goodell's numerous press conferences and statements in the press have made him face for player discipline. He chose to position himself that way - not me. Rozelle never did it. Neither did Tagliabue. He created this persona and the perception followers of the NFL have of him.
Does the perception innacurately reflect the actual disciplinary process? Yes. As the CEO of the NFL is it his responsibility to shape, clarify his image and articulate his job function publicy? Absafreakinglutely.
Because he is a poor communicator, he is hurting himself from a PR standpoint.
Being a repeat offender for dodging the media: $100,000 fine.
Being a repeat offender for trying to hurt someone: $70,000 fine and no suspension.
How any organization allows a player like Suh on their team is mind blowing. I hope the Cowboys rip the Lions a new one.
