This is great, love it

2009ring also shared his impression of Goodell, who seems like he was a good sport about the shirt thing,

This man is a pure PR machine. He exudes a personality that makes you want to like him. Frankly, if I didn't know what I know about him, I probably would have fallen for it. But it's easy to see why the media fawns all over him. The fact that he presents himself the way he does is either maniacal genius or borderline sociopath.

I'm leaning on option 2. If he's a genius then why is he stepping away from a situation he created.

Re: Free Sean Payton Shirt + Roger Goodell= Priceless
 

Because if he stayed in the situation, it would make him look like an idiot. Therefore, genius.

Logic. What a great idea!

Mr. Commissioner. Do you believe the fans have a right to see each and every piece of evidence in the Saints' pay-for-performance case?"

"You are going to have to ask Mr. Paul Tagliabue. You see, I've been asked to step away for undisclosed reasons. I will say I stand by my decesion making process, not the one on the replacement refs, or the Hardgrove recording, or the leger account, I screwed those up. Players now are just coming out and saying they are going to knock people out with no bounties so as you can see I'm totally bewildered and disoriented at this point."

Seems like Godhell has some kind of humor :D

Believe it or not, James Fricking Carville the Bug Man can be kinda exactly like that. I mean, he's an idiot, and a douche, but up close in person when you get him off TV and interact with him one on one, he is kinda entertaining, a great schmoozer, and he exudes that same weird likeability thing like 2009ring was talking about -- up close, if you didn't know better you might actually fall for his schtick. And like Goodell, it's almost sociopathic, the way he puts on an act or turns on the charm, in things like meet-and-greet type situations or going around a room of people. So Carville and Goodell, they are both lizards and slightly inhuman. Doesn't surprise me that Goodell would be weird like that.
