Goodell's opening speech...

Anyone else think it was totally disgusting of him to use the tragedy in Alabama to shut up the irate crowd?

You KNOW he knew that was coming and a "moment of silence" for those affected by the tragedy was all too convenient. I call BS. 100 bux says they had a less effective diversionary tactic up their sleeve and then saw the tornado damage and thought "JACKPOT!"

For that Commish, you disgust me.

Agree or no?

It's perfectly normal to have a moment of reflection at the start of public events that directly follow an incident of national tragedy. It shows a respect for those suffering, rather than being all pomp and circumstance happy-go-lucky. You do these things at the beginning of functions, not somewhere in the middle. I think it was stupid of the fans to boo Goodell anyhow, he's just a pawn of the billionaire owners' will.

I think it was pretty disgusting the way the crowd was acting but thats just me. I mean I like how they were chanting "We Want Football" but after you keep him from talking a couple of times the point has been made. Its immature to me for him to have to continually have to ask them to be quiet. It was like I was back at High school.

And BTW I guarantee if there had been no lockout he would have said the same thing. They always do something similar after great tragedies.

I find it funny that fan are so stupid not to realize that the way things are going Dallas and Washington will be kicking New York's ass in a few year for the foreseeable future.

I guess they will blame the NFL for that one to though.

I can't remember the last time I watched an event even similar to this where they didn't start it off with honoring people that just recently were killed etc. Nothing wrong with it at all in my opinion! Was a basketball game I believe I was watching that did the same for the first storm. What's wrong with it?

as for the military thing, thats been part of the draft for years too.
