Is Roger Goodell Good For the NFL?

[SBXVII]

Skinsguy,

With out quoting everything...

whether if they like it or not, intended to be or not, they are viewed upon as role models, especially to the kids.

Your 100% correct. I don't like it or agree with it but your correct. But I still see the "NFL" as being this evil empire over shadowing the teams and players. Instead of everything being sent to the NFL for review on a dicided punishment how about teams do the punishments and if the teams don't or fail to then the NFL can step in. Plus only punish if a player is actually found guilty of a crime.

I also like the ideas of making the game a bit safer to play in regards to concussions. Although, you can only take that so far before you really change the complexion of the game, and that is something I do not want to see. But, I am all for protecting the players health. But let's keep in mind that the game is and will always be a dangerous sport and injury is inevitable.

I'm torn. I'm the first to say they get paid millions to play a violent sport. They don't want a concussion don't play. No different then a boxer. You don't go into boxing not expecting to get knocked out once and a while. But it does seem players are playing with wreckless abandon. Even the hitters. But it pisses me off seeing how no one can hit a QB or WR anymore. They might as well make it flag football.
