Another example of goodell making this shit up as he goes along.

Could you explain your criticism of Goodell a little better?

Don't see what he has done wrong here. Letting the Texans and Watson screw themselves last year was the right move since it did not affect other teams negatively and it let Watson earn money to pay a settlement or judgment to these women.

The grand juries did not indict and the first civil cases are scheduled through trials.

Seems like the last CBA has it so that Goodell does not make the decision to impose discipline.

It is not until the Discipline Officer makes a decision to impose punishment that Goodell makes a decision on whether he agrees with the penalty imposed by the Discipline Officer.

Seems like criticizing Goodell makes no sense when Texans, Browns and Watson and his agent and lawyer have decided to create a cluster**** that only hurts them and no other person or team.
