It's like people blaming the President for things that Congress controls. Roger is just a pawn in all of this.

Sad when online gambling sites have more integrity then the NFL.

I think the guy has alot more influence on the happenings of this league than you are giving him credit for. He is the commissioner. 110% of his time should have been at the bargaining table with the refs since the disaster that was week two. Instead, he gives half assed BS statements that they are doing a good job, and then has the AUDACITY to THREATEN the players with fines if they don't show respect to these bumbling idiots, and these are the players that he says their safety is the number one concern of the league. Another bull shit statement. Goodell could make this thing happen, Im sure he has plenty of influence over the situation. To think that he doesn't is kinda naive.
