wrong....THIS preceded being named assistant to Hunt. There is a serious question that Goodell's intership with the Jets CAME FIRST and Goodell had it changed in his official bio in 2009 after being OUTED as a liar.
"After college, Roger Goodell wrote letters to every National Football League team in search of a job. He finally landed an internship with the league's front office the following spring, and after a season as an intern with the New York Jets, he returned to the front office for good in 1984."
Roger Goodell
as you can plainly see, he wrote to every TEAM, yet the first job he gets in 1983 is the front office, THEN the Jets? No...he got his first internship with the Jets then, after Hess lobbied hard, he got a job with the league. When this was exposed in 2009 HE had history changed on his offical bio pages to reflect "first interned with the league THEN the Jets". This makes ZERO sense on its face...you don't get a job with the league when you are trying to get a job with ANY team!!!@ Jeezus krist, his lying is so transparent it's ridiculous yet the average NFL fan BELIEVES the tripe vomited out as FACT by this corrupt NFL hook line and sinker.
