Another thing that is funny about that is he cites "all fans are excited about the possiblity of an 18 game season", meanwhile I haven't heard ANYONE I talk to that would like in the least.
What I have heard overwhelming fan support for is the ability for players to celebrate without fear of a sensitive penalty in the endzone after a touchdown.
So when is Goodell listening to fan support, when it is only in the best interest of the NFL?...Go screw Goodell and quit citing supposed fan support as sincere motives of the NFL.
Fans would have wanted the Vikings vs. Eagles game played in an all out blizzard and not played on a Tuesday night just so the NFL could buy another night in which it was the leading rated thing on television.
