Is it wrong to pray for a ribbon cutting ceremony to go horrible wrong?

[Guest]

In this case yes because it's the Vikings and above and beyond all else, that's who the ribbon cutting is for. The Vikings, the fans and the community. That asshat will leave but TCO will remain.

Am I the only one that doesn't hate Goodell? I have zero problem with the guy.

[Guest]

Say what you will, but he helped keep the Vikes where they belong, and worked with Wilfs for new stadium.  Yeah he's an overpaid autocrat, but at least we're not the LA Vikings, and someone is not "stitching up" the roof of the metrodump.

he’s probably already reproduced so even if the giant scisors slipped it wouldnt save us from future generations of his seed.

Nope. I think people will hate the next guy too. I don't have zero problems with him but he's doing better then do nothing Tagliabue. Funny thing is the masses hate him mostly because of the 2007 personal conduct policy. People screamed that players were out of control. Now they scream he's out of control for suspending our player.

People generally dont care for leaders who appear to play favorites especially in matters of discipline.  Add in his lack of candor on the matter and it makes him look weak.

Inconsistency is my problem with him. I just don't blame him for it. He doesn't own the league he runs it for billionaires who even if they grandstand want him to be the heavy, when the public crys for it...wink wink.. They also want to protect their image. So you get the blunders like Ray Rice. They wanted that to be handled quickly but quietly. Then the video leaked. I believe all the owners knew what really happened before that. Hence Ray hasn't worked since. That's why they got and need a Goodell. Jerry can grandstand that he's got concerns about his then upcoming new contract. Playing to his fan base because their star RB was being railroaded. Jerry is far more phoney and inconsistent then Rodger. As for candor. He was hired to cleanup a league gone wild. Since when has a new sheriff ever had cador? He is exactly what the owners hired him for and why they gave him the fat new contract. So now they can go back to joining in with the chirping of their fan bases about how unfair he is.
I might be the only one who likes the Personal Conduct Policy. Even if it seems unbalanced. It's better then no policy and no accountability that used to be the league.
