Roger Goodell's 2013 Salary

[TheRed]

You would think we have some millionaires on the huddle the way people are falling over themselves to defend his salary.

[Kakarot]

Meh...nothing wrong with his salary. Ain't mad at him. Get your money, Roger.

[twylyght]

I'm sure all the posters complaining about his income are more worthy of his salary. How do you figure we should divvy that pie?

How come we never hear this line of reasoning when discussing how much Hollywood stars make?

Yes, because only millionaires think its ok for people to be paid large amounts of money.

I mean, the guy is the head of a major enterprise. Did everyone think he was working on the cheap?

[Panthro]

He only makes 100x more than the lowest paid player. Not like other CEOS that make 273 more.

I don't have a problem with executive compensation in general, but he's way overpaid considering how little work/skill it would take to run the NFL. He took a very profitable product and has basically just stayed the course. The NFL isn't really regulated by the government, has no real competition, no overseas operations, and probably has <1500 employees. Now compare that to running Apple, JP Morgan, or BP for example. But I think $5-7M is plenty fair for Goodell.

I'd pay him more. Gordells worth more. He's the best but riverboat rivera is the bestest

Changing the league's tax-exempt status won't change anything other than forcing them to pay taxes twice on their revenue distributed from the television deals. The league itself runs a deficit.

He helped the owners take a substantial amount of revenue from the players in the new CBA, I'm not at all surprised by the reward.

[Guest Dark Knight]

I bet 90% of the people whining about Goodell's salary are posting from an iPhone.

NFL CEO Roger Goodell: $850,000 per week

NFL practice squad player: $6,000 per week

Apple CEO Tim Cook: $7,270,000 per week

Apple factory worker: $67 per week

Demaurice Smith being a moron had more to do with the players getting screwed than Goodell did. If anyone should be paid handsomely by the owners, it's him.
