Benson Meets with Goodell in NYC

METAIRIE, La. (AP) -- New Orleans Saints owner Tom Benson has met with NFL commissioner Roger Goodell in New York to discuss matters concerning both the team and the league.
While the NFL and the Saints are providing very few details, Saints spokesman Greg Bensel says the meeting was productive and that Benson looks forward to many more discussions with the commissioner.

You know, Benson would kind of intimidate me in an office. I met him at training camp and he almost ran me over in a golf cart, and he seemed a bit startled, and kind looked at me like I was going to carjack him, but in suits, office, office tower setting--- I think he might be a little scary.

Re: Benson meeting with Goodell...

I like this:

Benson Meets with Goodell on New Orleans Saints Mistreatment: Fan Reaction - Yahoo! Sports

As much as the gridlock of American politics aggravates me, Roger Goodell is a clear example of why a dictatorship would be far worse. Thus far, the NFL's only defense in Vilma's court case has been that the CBA grants Goodell autonomy in these matters. But does the CBA give him the right to levy any penalty he wants to?

Tom Benson met with Goodell at a time when one must wonder how much more criticism he can handle. Benson's meeting may convince Goodell to drop the Saints player suspensions before Judge Berrigan embarrasses the NFL in court.

I honestly don't think Roger Goodell knew what he was getting himself into. Like everyone in New Orleans, Tom Benson is a fighter. New Orleans withstood much worse than this in 2005 and came back even stronger. Benson and the Saints may be on the verge of a bigger victory than Super Bowl 44.

Re: Benson meeting with Goodell...

With the insurance company bailed on Roger, things seems even more interesting. I wonder if the owners would consider making roger the fall guy in some kind of deal to accommodate the player lawsuits...

Yeah, I'm dreaming, and I usually dream of Zooey, but she's knows I'm passionate on this particular issue so she's cool with it...

Send Zooey to seduce Roger and give him herpes.

Or blow him and bite his junk off
