% chance Goodell shows up.

[lurker1965]

I think he might find an excuse to not come - say his child is sick or he has to negotiate with China or a game or whatever. I say he's 50% likely and the clown nose story wa a trial balloon.

Yeah,I maybe nuts, but we are talking a guy with an ego so big the pizza story and stuff makes sense.

 

[Clonamery]

Yeah....50%....he either will show or he won't.

 

[signbabybrady]

He'll be there. How much he's seen when he's here is a different question.

 

[scott99]

I think he doesn't show up. He didn't show up in Sept 2015 at the season opener against Pittsburgh after the Pats won SB 49 (after Brady's 4 game suspension was reversed in August 2015). I think he will do the same thing and say he wasn't invited.

 

[PatsWickedPissah]

Bold 50 - 50 prediction

 

[borg]

100 clown noses he'll be on property

 

[Wheelman]

100%

Kraft makes sure there are no Goodie clown jerseys, NBC puts in fake cheers into the broadcast for Goodell. Goodell is celebrated as a hero to pro football and its saviour. NBC recuts pats fans cheering for something else happening to cheering for Goodell.

 

[Froob]

None.

 

[RobertWeathers]

I hope he goes.

It'll be epic.

 

[MitchKumstein]

I think that he goes to the game, but he sneaks in/out through a secret entrance, he watches the game where no one can spot him, and he tells Kraft that he is not to be shown on the jumbotron.

And the next day he'll announce that he was at Gillette with us great Patriots fans and his good friends The Krafts

 

[patfanken]

Here's the thing: I believe he WILL show. But there are levels of the kind of showing he can make. What he SHOULD do is publicly stand, acknowledge the crowd, take his well deserved booing and move on.

What I expect he WILL do is secret himself into some luxury box, ignore the fans, and after one quick shot of him to prove he actually did show up, never be spoken of again. BTW- 100% guarantee that he is long gone from Gillette when the final gun sounds.

That being said, IFFFFFFF a full blown clown out ever starts to take shape, the odds of him coming will begin to shrink. It is one thing to be the subject of a couple of minutes of booing at the start of the game, and entirely different thing to be publicly humilated for 3 hours straight in front of a national TV audience. Go CLOWN OUT.

A 1st qtr Krafty -Goodell lip kiss while seated on the ownership booster chairs .....then a speedy exit on the corporate copter up to his McMansion in Maine

 

[hornetfb85]

Well he'll probably show up but after someone turbo lax's his coffee his stay might look more like this...

 

[lurker1965]

Funny some think a 50-50 chance when asking people so as to not unduly influence anyone was stupid, But hey, whatever.

 

[ScottishPatriots]

He'll show up, $38m a season and back being buddies with Kraft is worth the booing and some clown shirts.

 

[Tony2046]

He'll show up in the most chicken **** way possible. Because that's what he is. An f'ing P***y. He won't step onto the field. When asked "why not", he'll weep that his life was threatened by a bunch of crazed Pats fans.

I can't wait. Hopefully it will be something as gutless as running off to Atlanta last season.

No question he slinks in/out.

 

[Actual Pats Fan]

None.

I'll be ready, just in case...

 

[PatsDeb]

He'll be there. How much he's seen when he's here is a different question.

This. He'll have a photo op somewhere in the bowels of Gillette with his buddy Bob, and some pre-recorded BS with the announcers and/or NFL Network, but they'll never show him on the Jumbotron, will hide him away in some untouchable suite, and he'll come out the next day and say he had "no problems" at Gillette, and that the fans he saw (i.e. Bob Kraft) were "gracious" and "welcoming" or some clap trap. Hopefully that will be belied by the myriad of clown shirts and noses in the audience, and the loud chants of, "Where is Roger?" during the game. F him. I hope he has a miserable time, although he'll never in a million years admit it.

 

[RobertWeathers]

I'll be ready, just in case...

How about drugging him and he pisses and poops his pants?
