Roger Goodell reportedly requests $50 million salary, lifetime private jet...
Either he's lost his mind, this report is false or he really doesn't want the job anymore.


Roger Goodell reportedly requests $50 million salary, lifetime private jet in contract talks

NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell reportedly has requested nearly $50 million per year in addition to the lifetime use of a private jet amid contract negotiations with the league.

Goodell, whose proposed contract with the NFL currently is undergoing an approval process, asked the league’s compensation committee in August to raise his salary from $30 million to $49.5 million per year, ESPN reported Sunday.

Goodell also reportedly asked to use a private jet for life, and also requested lifetime health insurance for his family.

The commissioner currently is embattled with Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones, who has threatened to sue the NFL if negotiations regarding Goodell’s contract extension are finalized without approval from all NFL team owners.

An unnamed NFL owner told ESPN that there are “several owners in this league who don’t make $40 million a year.” The owner added: “That number for Roger just seems too much. It’s offensive. It’s unseemly.”

Goodell has made headlines in recent months for his handling of league players protesting during the national anthem ahead of NFL games.

He said last month that “we want our players to stand” during the anthem, but stopped short of imposing a rule for players to do so.

One team owner, regarding the possibility Goodell possibly would leave his position, said “the problem” with the NFL is “no one is talking about games anymore.”

“It’s about concussions, Jones vs. Goodell, [Ezekiel Elliott’s suspension], the anthem. No one is talking about football. It’s just killing the game,” the owner told ESPN.

Another owner told the sports network that “Roger is defiant,” and they don’t believe he’ll “take a pay cut” or resign as commissioner of the NFL.

I cant imagine its worth $50MM to the owners for anyone to do that job.

In comparison, DeMaurice Smith makes about $3MM per year from what I can find.

He's in charge of a $9 BILLION DOLLAR+ per year enterprise.

That alone makes his salary worth at least $32 million per, which breaks down into $1 million per team.

If I was his agent, I'd be asking for $50 million per as well.

You can't get it if you don't ask for it.

The NFL needs likeable people that would add value to the broadcast. Rodger Goodell, it could be argued, has not been adding value to the broadcast.

That's actually not a bad idea. The NFL is an entertainment property. they should hire someone from Hollywood, or a huge global marketing CEO to run the league.

If this was the business world: Sales are down, brand equity is down, operations are suffering. The CEO would be shitcanned months ago. Not be asking for a 70% pay increase and lifetime mile high club.

I'd be happy with just seeing who the picks are via a scrolling ticker as they happen. or on a big screen etc. Just let the "analysts" talk about players etc, then when a pick is in, just flash it on a big screen .

if the NFL were to enlist a celebrity to make the picks, or athletes, etc...I think it would just turn into more of a turd than it already is. You'd have some of the idiot old Raiders and Cowboys making fools of themselves....then others would have to one-up them.

I never thought it would be possible for the NFL to mess up the draft, but they've managed to do it the last 3 years or so.

I really like it when they bring the former players out to make the picks, so let's do the math.

Option 1. Former Player Announcements. They already have one former NFL player at each draft announcing the second round. If you added one more for each of the other six rounds, that would be 192 players. Assume $1,500 for business class airfare, $1,500 for hotel, $1,000 for food, $500 for incidentals, and a $1,000 honorarium, and you end up with a total cost of $1,056,000.

Option 2. Have Goodell do it. At a $50 million salary, the league's cost for him to attend the three-day draft is $600,000. Add in the private jet time and benefits and it's probably $650,000.

So we need to save about $400,000 to use players instead of Roger. That means we can afford 110 players. Would anyone mind if each player announced two rounds? You could also have fans announce a round or two.

Don't former NFL players announce the second round picks every year?

Not one to one. Time to get a bigger frying pan. Viewership would go up w/o Goodell. Higher ratings = higher tv revenue. Work with SB half-time stars on a package gig to do the SB & the next draft. Justin Timberlake with a 3 song set before the the draft. Maybe have a cameo wardrobe malfunction with Janet Jackson (Alternates: Kate Hudson/Lady Gaga/Beyonce). Get a new demographic watching the draft and throw in some gratuitous cleavage and nipples for the horny hard core NFL fan. Maybe have a Goodelll look-alike in a dunk tank. A lucky audience member gets to come up and dunk him every half-round. Channel your inner Charlie Finley and go crazy... (BTW, if games go PPV, this may be the only free NFL broadcast left.)
