    I agree. The ONLY thing I can think why the owners are backing him is because they are also culpable. Spy-gate videotape successfully contained/destroyed. Bounty-gate video same. Ray Rice was another attempt at video containment that back-fired. The NFL's credibility as a legitimate league of competition is really what is at risk. We have doper and groper owners and Robert Kraft so got 3 Super Bowls from stolen signals (remember how pissed bullock was?)

    I suspect Goodell comes clean on owner involvement if they dump him. I believe right now there are undisclosed negotiations occurring between Goodell and the owners regarding his severance package. Owners are also looking for their next puppet to put in place. The farce of an Independant investigation is also only a temporizing measure.

    I have no doubt Goodell will be gone. I think all parties WANT it to occur after the Super Bowl but if the media keeps exploiting public outrage, revenue reduction will expedite the severance negotiation process.

    I hope Goodell is still around in May of next year. The draft boos will be glorious.

    More news: Ratbird franchise is a piece of shat. Harbaugh wanted to cut Rice right away. The owner overruled Harbaugh then went on a PR campaign with Gooddell and the courts. After Rice was cut the owner set Rice an email saying that Rice would have a job with the Ravens after his playing career was over.

    The Ravens and NFL then threw Rice under the bus saying he lied about what happened. Which is BS because Rice told them everything.

    Aaaaaaaaaand crickets on Roger Goodell. Told you this thing was going to just quietly go away. Heard another owner come out backing him a few days ago. But other than that I haven't heard a peep. This "unbiased investigation" is going to come up empty and Roger Goodell will continue his reign of terror. Book it.

    Yup, can't remember who but someone was saying this would be massive and people would lose jobs over it. I said it would go away within 2 weeks, which it did.

    Also seems Goodell is laying low, as well.

    It will raise its head again. With the next disciplinary action a player receives.

    Some men just can't help beating on women. Some cultures consider it a male privilege. There will be other men in the NFL who will beat on their wives/kids this season or next and finally one woman will value her life enough to go to the cops and tell the whole sordid story of repeated abuse, which likely has been happening on more than one occasion. I can't believe the mothers of the children who have been beaten stay quiet. Unless, of course, they beat them also or they love their money more than they love their children.
