Roger Goodell Admits Job Would Be Easier If He Watched Football
NEW YORKConceding that many facets of the game still felt completely foreign to him, NFL commissioner Roger Goodell admitted Monday that his job would probably be a lot easier if he actually watched football. Honestly, its really tough to get a handle on whats a good rule change because Im really not that big a fanthis commissioner gig is just sort of a paycheck for me, said Goodell, adding that he couldnt even name any teams besides the Cowboys, the one in Los Angeles thats pretty good, and the Longhorns. I hate having to sit through the games and pretend like I care or even understand whats going on down there. I mean, Im only here because my friend hooked me up. It would probably help if I knew some of the players names, or at least what a false start is. Its not too hard though, usually I just do whatever the owners say and keep my head down. Goodell also confessed that he once had to look up the word concussion on his phone during a meeting so as not to look completely out of touch.
