That said, if you tell me that Goodell has a ton of influence on refs getting promoted to "all star" status, or bad refs getting fired (which still no one has been able to answer), then I can certainly see where he could use that as a weapon to steer games towards outcomes he wants w/o ever saying a word out loud.
When Goodell brings in his "all star" refs - do they know basically what he wants? Maybe.
As usual the actual conspiracy is a lot more out in the open and mundane than the fantasy.
