Carlos Rogers thinks the way Goodell handles things is “kind of crazy”
San Francisco cornerback Carlos Rogers says he doesn’t appreciate the way NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell has conducted the league’s investigation and subsequent discipline for the Saints’ bounty program.
“A lot of Goodell, the way he go about things, is kind of crazy to me,” Rogers said on 790 the Zone in Atlanta, via SportsRadioInterviews.com. Although it was Rogers’ 49ers teammates whom former Saints defensive coordinator Gregg Williams was urging his players to target in his infamous speech before their January playoff meeting, Rogers says he simply doesn’t believe any player would try to hurt an opponent with a cheap shot for financial reasons. “Guys going out there to hurt guys for a couple of thousand dollars when you basically can get fined by the league for $15,000, it just doesn’t add out to me,” Rogers said. “A lot of people do their little system things where you make a big play, you make a big hit or you get an interception and you return it for a touchdown — different positions have pots. But to say you go out and intentionally hurt a guy for for a couple of thousand dollars to get fined by the league $15,000 and even more, that just doesn’t add up.” Carlos Rogers thinks the way Goodell handles things is |

That has what has irked me from the Start with that B%#@h Goodell actually calling our players out saying they were trying to intentionally injure and hurt people. Never added up to me either. If he would have kept those statements out everyone could have accepted this and moved on by now. This guy could never get away with accusations like this anywhere else and now is a marked man. The owners should grow a set of balls and do something about this man before he does something else. They are the only ones with the power unless the civil courts would step in and punish him enough to rein him in. We can only hope but its a long shot.
