Okay, so I was scrolling through social media the other day, and I kept seeing all this hate directed at the NFL commissioner, Roger Goodell. It’s like, every time his face popped up, people were just trashing him. I got curious. Why does everyone hate the NFL commissioner so much?
So, I started digging. I opened up my browser and typed in “Why does everyone hate Roger Goodell?” The search results were wild! It was like opening a can of worms.
Dive into Forums
- Checked out some NFL forums first. Man, those places are brutal. People were going off about everything from his handling of player protests to the way he deals with player safety issues. Some called him arrogant, others said he’s out of touch.
- Then I jumped onto Reddit. There’s a whole subreddit dedicated to hating on Goodell. People posted memes, rants, you name it. It was actually kind of funny, but also a little scary how much people dislike the guy.
Social Media Rampage
- Hopped over to Twitter (or X, or whatever it’s called now). Same story. People tweeted about how he’s ruining the game, how he’s only in it for the money, and how he doesn’t care about the players.
- Even on Instagram, under posts about the NFL, you’d find comments bashing Goodell. It was relentless!
News Articles and Blogs
- I read a bunch of news articles and blog posts about him. Some were critical of his decisions, like the whole Deflategate thing or the way he handled the Ray Rice situation. Others defended him, saying he’s just doing his job and trying to protect the league.
- Found a few interviews with Goodell himself. He seemed pretty calm and collected, but you could tell he was aware of all the hate. He kept saying he’s trying to do what’s best for the game, but it’s clear that a lot of people don’t buy it.
My Conclusion
After all that digging, I realized it’s not just one thing. It’s a whole bunch of things. Some people think he’s too harsh with punishments, others think he’s not harsh enough. Some think he’s too focused on making money, others think he’s not doing enough to grow the game. It’s a mess!
Personally, I don’t really have strong feelings about the guy. But it was definitely an interesting experience to dive into the world of Goodell hate. It’s like a whole subculture within the NFL fandom. Anyway, I just wanted to share my little research journey with y’all. What do you guys think of Roger Goodell? Let me know in the comments!
