Message: [QUOTE="Melancer46, post: 1141409, member: 1674"] So are you saying that Goodell should be punishing himself? I just think that's silly. Just like the players and coaches don't punish themselves, neither should the commissioner. It's up to the NFL owners to decide what they want to do with Goodell, and by all accounts, they are in support of him. Goodell holds the players and coaches to the standard of taking accountability for their actions and admitting when they've done wrong. At the same time, he also is the one that levies punishments upon them (or at least used to since he's hinted at giving up that power in his most recent press conference). In this particular situation, he took accountability and admitted that he got this wrong, but he is not the one that levies punishments upon himself. That part is up to the NFL owners. [/QUOTE]
