Oooo he mad. That last Tweet was 100% snarky. This is awesome. People are gonna pick this tweet up with the joke "DREW BREES DEMANDS AN EXPLANATION" line and put this thing all over the internet, it's blowing up in Goodell's face.

I started laughing when the NFL decided to go with these refs with less than 2 months training. I honestly thought it was a tactic to put pressure on the refs. Boy was I wrong. Gotta hand it to the NFL. They will damage their own product just to prove a point.

The worst thing is they can damage it all they want, and people will still watch on Sunday AND buy the merch

Maybe not for long?

Can the fans sue for paying for a sub par product?

Like someone posted the other day, Brees will be the first player fined or suspended for commenting on the refs.

It's like watching a 65' Cadillac roll through chain link fences at 50mph.
It won't stop the car but it sure is ruining a classic.

We should organize "Occupy NFL"... think it will make a difference?

All the team bulletin boards and fantacy leagues need to get the word out. Until we get real refs, support your teams but not the NFL. Stop tuning in to other games and NFL programming. Goodell thinks he has power? Just wait till TV ad revenue comes crashing down and the TV execs start squeezing his cajones.

As much as I would like to blame this on Goodhell, unfortunately it's not him it's the owners of the franchises. Until this happens to a Jerry Jones who has a billion dollar stadium to pay for or some other big market team they will stay the course. The way to get our ( the fans) is not to buy the merchandise, tickets or anything affiliated with the teams. Hit them in their collective pocket books and things will change very quickly. When sponsors start to invest advertisement money somewhere else we will continue to endure this horrible exhibition that they call the NFL.
I don't know about the rest of you guys but watching football this season isn't appealing as it was last year.

I'm doing all that, but taking it one step further. I won't even be watching Saints' games. I will keep up with them, but that's it. Not until this thing is over.

I've already stopped buying mechandise. I haven't bought the first item with an NFL logo on it this year. Nothing. And it will be a long time before I spend my hard earned money to support the product I have seen in the last 8 months. As a matter of fact, I will not but another NFL item until that asshat Goodell is history...period. No matter how long that takes.
