Around the NFL WEEK 11

He’s made them a lot of money, what else is there

Goodell is doing a good job for the owners, because the public blames him for everything and not them.

Everything that Goodell does is a directive from the owners. All the things that people don't like about the league, Goodell does because the owners want it that way (which is to make more money without them spending any).

The only thing that is Goodell's own agenda is the whole issue with player discipline. But as Andrew Brandt says, for every situation where an owner is unhappy with Goodell about player discipline such as Kraft (Spygate/Brady), Benson (Bountygate), or Jerry Jones (Elliott), there are a group of owners who are supporting him.

If I'm Goodell, I'm asking for all these things, because he has to do the dirty work so the owners don't have to put up with John Q. Public.

......this!

That!

He’s made them a lot of money, what else is there

What has he done individually to make them lots of moeny? Did he negotiate the TV contracts himself? I think the NFL made lots of money and he had the luck of bring commiosioner when it happened. Good timing on his part. Now viewership is declining due to the boneheaded way he's handled the protesting, player discipline etc. Doesn't seem like he has earned a hefty raise and even more benefits. I think he gets more credit than deserved. Like I said, I'd like to hear what the owners say about him. He has to be doing something right, just don't see it from my perspective.

That!

Doesn't matter how much credit you give him for the ratings rise and the associated rise in money the NFL made, the fact is he takes the blame for everything and under his leadership profits have risen exponentially. The majority of owners who haven't been punished by him for some reason or other see the dollar signs, which is why the vote was unanimous to let the compensation committee negotiate his extension.

I just don't like the guy lol. Oh well. Doesn't really effect the Skins much I guess.

Yes he’s involved in the negotiations of the TV deals and growing the league.

You think he gets more credit than he deserves?? What credit does he ever get??

Please god let this be true. Jerry Jones as a human being is a first class piece of excrement. I hate the cowboys sure, but I hate Jones even more. He is a racist piece of garbage.

The only credit that matters, 50 million per year worth of credit.
