Amazing that Roger Goodell makes $40 million a year. I guess the NFL is just an endless cash cow, and as commissioner, he hasn't completely ruined it; as a result, he is allocated a nice share of the profits, but Goodell comes off as a complete dimwit, unlikeable and insincere. Right place, right time, and the old carrot top got paid big time. Some people you know would be successful in whatever career path they chose. Roger seems the opposite. In any other career, he would just be another guy.
Instead, Goodell landed a job as an intern for the NFL, hung around the NFL office long enough to score soft promotions as the NFL exploded in popularity over the last 40 years, and with no other obvious candidates to succeed Paul Tagliabue, Roger the Redhead fell into perhaps the cushiest/lucrative job in sports.
He has the personality of a dinner roll. Just painful to watch him during the draft.
