I just wonder if Snyder is being pushed out because he's got some cheese that makes some important people sweat.
You're entering unholy territory here, which might make it harder to call high-level PROFESSIONAL ATHLETES "boneheaded"... Also might make it harder to enjoy a sport that falls under the category of "Entertainment" or "Advertising".

I have for quite some time abided by the precepts from infamous historical and fictitious literary detectives that have come to conclusions that no matter how improbable and seemingly nearly impossible, the obvious is in all likelihood the answer, even if no proof is immediately forthcoming, all a result of simple observations, common sense, deductions and ruling out other possibilities. We see, from time to time, little sprinkles of truth bombs, subtle little clues if you will, emanating from sometimes the most unlikely of sources. If one pays attention and notices these and interpolates them with the behaviors of many of these characters, how can we not come to some kind of meeting of the minds? The sad reality is that all of sports is now entertainment, even college now as NIL intertwines itself more solidly. Even despite that, I find that college is far more entertaining at the present than the pros.

Yes, we can probably thank Roger Goodell for that misleading portrayal of what is perceived as real football. So, college football is still football but the NFL shouldn't be called football anymore.

What confuses me is that the gambling industry got in bed with a rigged game.....sorry, I meant rigged Entertainment.

I love to gamble but not on sporting events. Or entertainment events for that matter. If I was gambling on the NFL it would be for a Tom Brady 4th quarter comeback. Either that or the team that just built the stadium and moved to a new City earning a playoff birth with or without a talented team.

Re: Saints fans launch petition asking team to fire Dennis Allen

NFL football is not classified as a sport under the AntiTrust agreement, it is classified as entertainment. As such they cannot be charged with fraud or criminal charges in how the games are played or officiated.

Point in fact the Houston Astros never any charges but clearly MLB knew the had to responde are all hell would break lose a Congress would have pulled the Antitrust aggrement.

Not speaking as a gamer for the Saints our history of No calls and just flats horrible calls. Having watched the change in how the NFL entertainment machine has been played and officiated during Goodell tenure we have seen the number of games clearly affected by calls that were clearly wrong and then upheld that ended up determing the winner and the unfortunate loser. I find it telling that most of the severe examples are all very subjective calls that under a true review would not stand but NFL/NYC make that decision … surprise shock. It happens too often to be coincidental.

WWE light is what we experiencing and it will on progress with Gotohell and the NFL extremely unlikely to change course.

Goodell works for.................THE OWNERS! He does what THEY TELL HIM TO DO!! You wouldn't take $40+million a year to be the scapegoat?
