Okay, on a more (slightly) serious note..
... and pretending for a moment this isn't a loaded question, are her credentials any less worthy than Goodell's are? Tagliabue's background was as a lawyer (if for the NFL) however Stephanie Stradley seems like she has everything you would want and expect from an NFL Commissioner. She certainly has the head for the complicated nuances of CBA/NFL bylaws.
Firing Goodell and hiring Stephanie Stradley would be a great way to 'turn over a new leaf' as it were and hiring a smart, fair-minded, independent-thinking woman from Texas might be a great PR move.
#StephStradleyforNFLCommissioner too unwieldy?
As to firing Goodell, I think the 'moral turpitude', 'mentally incapacitated' and the 'actions by such officers is detrimental to the best interest of the League' clauses fit him nicely here.
Or maybe: #FireGoodellHireStephStradley ?
