Is Roger Goodell Good For the NFL?

[mlmpetert]

@Skinsfan: Yeah i strongly believe Goodell is just riding the remaining coattails of Rozelle and Tagliabue, of which anyone could do with little effort for a very long time. In fact I think any commissioner follow those 2 could make very unpopular decisions without drastic ramifactions due to their groundwork. Perhaps that’s Goodells role, do the things no one else wants to do (but thinks should be done), take the blame for it, make his money and step down when the new savior commissioner is ready to step in. My issues with him are with his inconsistencies, inability to articulate rules, and his push to limit defenses and advance offenses and scoring.

@Alvin & Matty: I agree that halftime shows suck and are for nachos, peeing, refilling, smoking, talking, or filliping to the puppy bowl. But since no one really watches it and the media only talks about it to slam it, don’t you think that’s something Roger should attempt to change? Imagine if he made it watchable and liked, how crazy would that be????

I know how much everyone likes Chris Chase so heres his take on Paul’s game check fine:
