Quote

Goodell, according to ESPN, has made a bid to raise his salary to $49.5 million a year, which would pay him more than the CEOs of IBM, Time Warner, Hewlett Packard, Disney, Nike, Oracle, Yahoo and J.P. Morgan Chase, among others. That is indecent. It is crazy. And it is irresponsible. Small wonder Jones threatened to sue the compensation committee, and wants more transparency on Goodell’s contract. While the owners fight among themselves, the rest of us can only sit around slack- jawed with wonder at their total loss of good sense and perspective.

 

Good lord.

Good lord. 

I'm pulling for Jerry Jones on this one all the way.

He may or may not have ulterior motives in opposing Goodell, but at least he's opposing him.

Goodell is a nit wit so I understand where Jones is coming from. We are looking at a failing NFL that is a damn monopoly and the ceo thinks he needs a raise?

Sally left off a prominent reason for "audience disaffection" in the list in her article though.  Gosh, I wonder why Sally "my politics lie to the left of Vladimir Lenin" Jenkins would do such a thing?

I have no sense of market value for that sort of work, but it's fair to say that job has gotten a lot more difficult in the last couple year. And it sure doesn't look like maintaining the NFL's financial success is going to be easy going forward. 

So, it's not necessarily crazy for a person to request a hefty raise as compensation for more stressful work; particularly if that person is considering walking away from it. (Could he be?)

His total screw up of the protest was just his latest screw up. Seriously though anyone on this board sans a couple could be the commissionor of the NFL. It's has the job complexity of running a Applebee's restaurant.

It's a monopoly and has 0 competition. It's stress level is lower than every manager position in America.

People don't generally get raises because their departments decline (especially when it is at least partly a reflection of their job performance) just because cleaning up the resulting mess is now going to be more stressful.

      Canes vs Canadians Gm 3 Rd 3 8pm

      By MillionDollarCam · Posted

      I was reading through the thread seeing if someone would mention this. This is exactly what the Canes are doing and Tripp Tracy alluded to it on the Spittin Chiclets podcast when he said Taylor Hall was our Sam Bennett. The Canes and Panthers have always played identical with the main difference being Florida toes the line between physical and dirty. The Canes have stepped up the physical play this year and are inching closer to that line of physical and dirty. If I’m being honest, as a Montreal fan I wouldn’t love the fact that the Canes seem to be targeting Hutson but as a Canes fan I love it because this is what you have to do in the playoffs. Unfortunately for Montreal they aren’t an overly physical team outside of Anderson and Xhekaj; only the Avs, Stars, and Sabres average less hits per game than Canadians in the playoffs. The Canadians can still make this a series if they stop playing scared and turning the puck over simply because they are getting elite goaltending while the Canes are getting average goaltending but if the Habs continue to play with the yips and either Andersen steps up or Dobes regresses then this series could end in five.
