Fujita destroys Roger Goodell
 
Quote:

October 10, 2012Statement from @scottfujita99:

"I'm pleased the Commissioner has finally acknowledged that I never participated in any so-called "bounty" program, as I've said for the past 7 months. However, his condescending tone was neither accurate nor productive. Additionally, I am now purportedly being suspended for failing to confront my former defensive coordinator for his inappropriate use of language. This seems like an extremely desperate attempt to punish me. I also think it sets a bad precedent when players can be disciplined for not challenging the behavior of their superiors. This is an absolute abuse of the power that's been afforded to the Commissioner.

For me, the issue of player health & safety is personal. For the league and the Commissioner, it's about perception & liability.

The Commissioner says he is disappointed in me. The truth is, I’m disappointed in him. His positions on player health and safety since a 2009 congressional hearing on concussions have been inconsistent at best. He failed to acknowledge a link between concussions & post-career brain disease, pushed for an 18-game regular season, committed to a full season of Thursday night games, has continually challenged players' rights to file workers compensation claims for on-the-job injuries, and he employed incompetent replacement officials for the start of the 2012 season. His actions or lack thereof are by the league’s own definition, “conduct detrimental”.

My track record on the issue of player health & safety speaks for itself. And clearly, as I just listed, the Commissioner's does too."
Nuff said.

Fujita needs to sue Der Kommisart too. Hell, everyone involved needs to sue Godhell! He is nothing more than a spoiloed child that wants his way.

I figured since Goodell is an azz clown, this one was pretty fitting.

Wow. Well said Fujita. I wonder what Goodell's first reaction was when he read this.

I think Goodell's head is so far up his own A** he's not able to read anything....

Absolutely true, but will not play out well for Scott Fujita, unfortunately.

We are living in a banana Republic.

There was no reaction....

Der Kommisar action was probably to run the the league lawyers to see if he was protected by the CBA to drop more punishment on Fujita since he spoke ill of the replacement referees...

He lives in his own little world... just waiting foe the sky to fall in on him...

Personally, I think it will play out quite well for Fujita.

He was probably thinking that he hates dealing with players that are smarter than he is. It's so much easier to manipulate them when they don't think for themselves.

I put the whole Fujita statement up on my Facebook page, word-for-word (where I don't really post much Saints stuff) and it is BLOWING UP with comments from people all over the country and being shared and "liked" and re-posted...more casual football fans, or people with only passing knowledge of the bounty story, NEED to see this statement. It's strong.

Re: Fujita destroys Roger Goodell
 
I'm sitting here listening to Sports Hangover and they keep saying Goodell is basically punishing them for lying. I have a problem with that logic. First of all they clearly stated that they did what the coaches TOLD them to do when it came to NFL coming to ask questions. Secondly....how can you sit and try to be a moral authority on anything.

Good idea! I did the same thing.

I think Goodell is taking one for the team. He is a puppet for the owners. There is another thread that lays it all out and it makes the most sense of anything I've seen. If someone advised the owners that there needed to be a sacrificial lamb to save them down the road, then why not have the team with the most loyal fans be the scapegoat.

The only thing I'm interested in right now is what Freech finds. He may dig up something below the surface. Somebody could break ranks with the NFL and expose what is really going on behind the scenes and I honestly believe this is a real scenario that could play out.

I wouldn't be suprised if Freeh's report actually shows the practice rampant within the league. Including suppressed information the league located during investigation of the Saints implicating other teams.

We already know the league basically stated they couldn't find information on the '07 Packers or information released in the press regarding former players stating it was common practice.

The league KNEW and they ignored it as long as the money flows in. They only changed their tune when they realized the player lawsuits could effect their wallets.

Bet Roger is having a hard time sitting down now that Fujita has torn him a new one!
