Amerikans are control freaks and touchy-feely; hence, the need for all the lawyers.
Goodell is a lawyer - he, and all lawyers, need to go the way of priests during the French Revolution; bind their hands and feet, set them adrift in a boat, and then sink it
Not a very effective means of disposal, but it made for great theatre

Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.
I've heard on sports talk radio several times that he was lawyer - is he something worse??
Draw and quarter?? his head on a pike?? I'm okay with those, if you think drowning is too dignified for him

Well shit, if you heard it several times on the radio, it must be true.

Didn't have any reason to doubt it... if he's not a lawyer, he's certainly sleezy enough to be one.
Personally, I think the French Revolution priest drowning scenario would provide the most compelling reality TV though... and isn't that what Amerika is all about now, "reality" TV??
Let's look up his CV and see what we find

There we go... seems papa was "connected", lol...
Was appointed to the U.S. Senate by Nelson Rockefeller (a more contempible sleeze never lived - and that's saying a lot, coz there's a lot of sleeze in this world) when Robert Kennedy was assassinated.
A "moderate" (code for a man with no principles), he showed his allegiance to the Establishment by going off the rails and voting the Establishment Party line, i.e. all things big government.
So daddy was pure scum.
Roger graduated from Washington & Jefferson College in Washington, Pennsylvania with a degree in economics. Strange, considering that papa was Ivy League - but, W&J is an elitist institution in its own right. $40k/year tuition, and highly ranked amongst the intelligencia.
Seems to have been rather innocuous as an employee within the league - strange pick for commissioner. I never really knew much about the guy... heard he was a lawyer, had no reason to doubt it.
Still, it makes sense that he wouldn't have a moral compass or any genuine sense of right and wrong, given his lineage.

I still vote we duct tape his hands and feet and give him the French priest treatment

You live in Denver, so you must be high, right??

Some days but not today. Nice work on the background check, showing Roger's connection to the Illuminati. Looks like the old man was an attorney too.
