Image result for roger goodell     Have the NFL changed the way they handle consequences of teams and players? Did they handle the Ray Rice and Adrian Peterson cases correctly. Roger Goodell admitted to the media that he was wrong of how he handled the Ray Rice case. Rice who was first only suspended for the first two games of the regular season after pleading guilty on domestic violence against his wife, Rice was later suspended for the rest of the season. Adrian Peterson pleaded guilty for child abused after beating his kid with a switch "tree branch" as a consequence. Peterson was not suspended from the league but instead by the Minnesota Vikings, the team of which he plays for.

     Is the commissioner of the NFL doing his job correctly? Goodell is also know for his fines against Marshawn Lynch for avoiding the media. In the month of November Lynch was fined for a total of $100,000 for not wanting to talk to the media. Would you considered it as the NFL invading his personal privacy, Lynch is clearly not comfortable getting interviewed, so why force him? As a fan of football I wouldn't want a guy who is arguably the worst commissioner of all time for the NFL as current commissioner of as now.
