Well, Mr. Goodell, the moneymaker that is the NFL is now experiencing an 8 to 14 percent decline in TV ratings (the main source of revenue of the league) because you were unwilling to quash those national anthem protests. What those four Philadelphia Eagles did last night with their Black Power gesture will guarantee that the ratings will stay down, and in fact could drive it even lower to 15 to 20 percent down compared to last season.

If Donald Trump wins the Presidency, you might as well be done as NFL Commissioner, because you would be considered "out of touch" with the sentiment of the fans of the league who pay for the gate receipts and watch the games on TV.

Maybe I’m misreading your post, but what power does Trump have over who is NFL commissioner....

The owners have that power...

We are electing a leader not a king...
