Do you despise Roger Goodell?

[top dawg]

"Despise" is such a strong word. Goodell is just a power hungry tool in the owners' back pockets. I do find that under his era there has been uneven justice meted out, and that's not necessarily good for the league. But, it's the NFL (which has become stronger financially under Goodell's reign), and it would take an act of God for fans to stop supporting the league, regardless of perceived inequities and injustices.

A lot of fan bases hate Roger Goodell. A lot of players hate Roger Gooddell. Some have valid reasons, some don't. 

Has his "wrath" ever really effected the Panthers or any of its players?  Do you think he is good for the sport?

The only situation I can think of where he had influence was with Greg Hardy, but Hardy is an asshat. 

I take a bit of issue with the office, but not really him personally. 

I also have a different problem than most of the general public. Most think that he's an overbearing a-hole, but I think they suck at standing their ground. How many suspensions have been reduced or negated in arbitration. It's really getting to be a joke. Every time some fool gets suspended, you now have to ask "is he REALLY suspended, or just tentatively suspended?"

1)  Ray Lewis  

2)Pac.Man Jones

3)Steve Smith SR.

4)Adrian Peterson 

5)Greg Hardy 

6)Michael Vick

7)Dori Green Beckham Jr.

8)Josh Gordon 

 NC court system rules not guilty 

Hardy with no prior arrest and never been convicted of one either?

Jerry Richardson cries on T.V.

The media created a mad man out of someone charged with simple assault 

Goodell suspended th his man for a record 20 games and for some reason every player listed above went on back to work

 

victim white female Nicole Holder whom was inoxicated and at the time on cocaine also and been taking the drug some days prior

whhy,such the outrage for this particular victim,makes no sense

Hardy contact NCAAP something don't add up kid,,behave and keep your mouth shut,you have a case here,

 

Goodell you suck dude

 

 

[Just Rob]

Hate him! Plus I heard he's related to D. Trump

[thefuzz]

Not really.

From the looks of it, he's done a great job, even if I don't agree with his (the owners) policy, or lack thereof sometimes.

[Mr. Scot]

Like the discipline he's bought. Hate most or all of his ideas (18 game season, team in England, etc).

No personal feelings about Goodell the man whatsoever.

[brandontr]

I don't hate him he just doing what the owners ask him to do if the players have problem they should look at the source of the problem which are the owners

[h0llywood]

No one here can say we do or don't like him since we don't know him personally.

However when it comes to business,play stupid games, you get stupid prizes from Roger Goodell. I give him a lot of credit for doing his job. 

[PantherGuy]

If you're gonna hate anyone, hate the owners. Goodell just does what they want him to do and takes all the blowback for it. He does that well, and that's why he's not in any danger of losing his job contrary to what the media will tell you.

[Your GFs favorite huddler]

Don't mind the discipline as long as it fits the crime...HATE the whole England/Mexico team bs but when there's money to be made it rules out all reason and sensible thinking

I think he screwed up spygate. I don't think he was harsh enough. You suspend Sean Payton for his defensive coordinator running an injury pool but let Bill off for getting caught cheating red handed. No consistency there. That and the Ray Rice debacle...  Now that I ponder those are pretty severe f&?! Ups. 

Yeah I totally agree.  Allowing them to get away with spygate was the worst thing they have ever done.  I think the league would have gotten much respect if they called out obvious cheating and stripped titles. What do they do?  Destory the evidence..   jesus what a bunch of idiots we are for continuing to give them ratings after that poo

[PantherWake]

Don't really hate him. I just hate the power he has.

[usmcpanthers]

I hate all the rules changes to cater to the offenses. I hate the kickoff changes, I hate the replay changes and how they can screw anyone on a catch ruling. Also the bs exempt list where Hardy got a much more severe suspension than other players like ray rice.

You do realize that Goodell does NOT make the rule changes.  Those are proposed by the rules committee and then voted on by the owners.

And, Hardy is a lowlife dirtbag whose own actions are to blame for what he has gotten.  There is a reason no one will touch the dude...and that reason is not Goodell.
