Even Goodell’s Supporters Are Baffled

Ruh roh Rog. This is still very tempered from the anonymous owners, but still it’s clear that they’re wondering why every time there’s a controversy the commish’s handling of it makes it ten times worse.

My biggest problem is the “we all voted to give him absolute power” take. YEah you all accepted that, so does that give him a free pass to make the process completely unfair? To plant stories in the press specifically to make the the players look bad? Everyone just has to accept that now?

I think when the players and owners accepted giving the commish this kind of power they thought he’d look at the facts and make a fair ruling. That’s not even close to what has happened time and again.

It’s amazing that all we hear from the league office is “integrity” yet every action they have taken speaks to their complete lack of integrity. It has taken a while but even the owners are waking up.
