Goodell “disappointed” Tagliabue did not hold Saints accountable

WhoDat!656 · 12-24-2012, 08:30 AM

NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell worked for Paul Tagliabue, has always expressed admiration for Tagliabue, and believed Tagliabue was the right man to determine the player discipline in the Saints bounty case. But after Tagliabue overruled Goodell and decided that no Saints players would be suspended, Goodell is disappointed in Tagliabue.

“I was disappointed he could find conduct detrimental and there is no discipline, that he could excuse that type of accountability as a coach’s responsibility,” Goodell said of Tagliabue in an interview with the New York Times. “I don’t share that perspective. This isn’t a new policy. The bounty rule has been in place for decades. It’s a core part of our rules.”

I'm disappointed he ran a botched investigation and can't admitt he was wrong...

I'm disappointed Goodell wasn't prosecuted for perjury...

I'm disappointed Goodell was allowed to have children. I feel for those kids every day - what a horrible thing.

The bounty rule has been in place for decades.

Tags let Reggie White and the Packers run it in the late 90s.

I'm just plain "disappointed" in the NFL. The quality of the product (players) is the best ever, while the pizz poor product (rules changes, Goodhell BS) has resulted in a drop in ratings. All under the leadership of Goodhell......and I also hate ESPN, I would consider them enablers of the commissars policies, all for the sake of enhanced ratings. Merry Christmas

I won't name names but my mom's boyfriend has a guy who played for the 49ers in the late 90s. He told him that the 49ers would call practice squad guys up just for the purpose to be the guys that got into fights and laid out big hits with intent to injure the other team.

But sure Goofdell the Saints were the first team ever to do this. Shut up you dolt
