Nothing against her, but my preference would be somebody who's already experienced within the NFL replacing Goodell if it comes to that (which it looks like it very well could).

 

Public relations for the NFL being what they are right now though, you could argue an outsider might be a better option.

 

Yeah the public would probably want an outsider.  It would be kind of funny if Rice got the job.  I do know people would be excited to see a woman at the top position in the NFL.

After a domestic violence scandal, putting a woman in charge would be good PR.

 

Unfortunate last name, though.

As mentioned before, the NFL is the most image conscious league in sports.

But they may have bigger problems now...

Senate Committee Chair Rockefeller looking to investigate NFL

FYI: Rockefeller isn't up for re-election, so this can't really be framed as a vote grabber.

Sounds like he's looking for Goodell's head.

Didn't the senate do the same thing for the redskins name? Where's the change on that one?

The fug?

 

The Ravens cut Rice, no one is going to touch him for a while, anyone who is looking for Goodell to do more than the league has already done needs to get a life. #schadenfreude 

 

I am aware of battered woman syndrome, but other people are feigning more anger about it than is his wife.

I wanted his ouster after all his lame cut backs to players celebrating and the lame rules against defensive players playing defense. I personally don't care about this situation. Ray Rice assaulted his wife and he should be punished, by the LAW. It's not the NFLs place to punish players in situations like this, it's the laws place. Not sure why all these media goons are whining about the NFL when if you want to raise hell over this situation, ask why the law hasn't punished Rice.

NOW is a pretty big group and this is a hot button issue with a very visceral video image attached.

Put that together with the congressional involvement and there's a big possibility this isn't so easily solved.

And Rice has been punished. End of the day people are still blurring the line of our judicial system and putting that on Goodell

People will get on ether soapbox....sure.

League has seen worse though.

      something to feel good about in the offseason..."could be something special brewing in Carolina"

      Then don't tune in. It's really not a hard concept to understand, if your making your decision based on your own personal needs/feelings as opposed to what is best for the future of the franchise, then it's a you problem, not a Panthers problem. When the season is already lost, every fan should be rooting for the same thing.  The team plays hard until the final whistle of the season and keeps improving as a team and individually, but in the end, we still come up short and lose games, and preferably because the other team beat us, not because we screwed up and found a way to lose due to our own fault. Look at it this way... If we are up 1 or 2 points with 3 seconds left in the game and the other team is lining up for a FG.  Beyond the joy of victory or the disappointment of defeat, what impact does the other team making or missing the FG have on our team the following season? ABSOLUTELY NOTHING Except where we draft and what teams we play due to our finish in the division. The players and coaches on the team would have the exact same level of improvement and learnings about themselves individually and as a team whether the FG is made or missed.  The ONLY difference in the end is the record in the standings and if the win or loss number changes. If you want to argue if making the playoffs to lose in the first round or just missing them is better or worse, that's totally fair and I can at least understand the other side of it.  But in what is already a lost season, if you're not hoping your team plays well but ends up losing, then you're cutting off your nose to spite your face.  You're hoping for a moment of happiness at the detriment of the franchise's future, and in turn, you're basically then happy for a moment to only set yourself up for future further disappointment.

      If we’re eliminated I want the wins more.   The season is already a disappointment and if I’m not pulling for wins why bother to tune in?

      Two things terribly wrong with this post. First is that not one time has myself or anyone else agreeing with me said that the team themselves should think that way or try and lose for positioning.  Never once have I suggested the team should purposefully lose games, ever.  I honestly can't understand why people keep saying this in posts, not one fan has ever said the players should or would purposefully try to lose. And second, is yes, that has happened and it's happened very recently.  The 2020 Bengals were 4-11-1 and then were playing in the SB the very next season.   And while it might have been 2 years later and they didn't quite get to the SB, the 2021 Lions were 3-13-1 and then the 2023 Lions were up 24-7 at halftime of the NFC Championship game. The season between those two? They finished 9-8 and only just missed the playoffs. Which is why I keep trying to compare us to the Lions in where we are at in our re-build.  Throw out Bryce's rookie year with the Reich staff who just didn't work out and he looked god awful.   This past season when we were 5-12 in Canales' 1st season is that 2021 season for the Lions and their 1st season under Campbell.  This year is their 2022 where they grew a ton and Campbell's culture building was clear, where I'm saying we'd likely be better off in the long run if we go 8-9 or 9-8 and just miss out on the playoffs (which is still a significant improvement from last year).  Then our 2026 is their 2024 when we have a chance to be a real contender after adding a few more pieces and our key players having another year of experience under their belts.
