Your memory is selective. 

Long before Burfict was the NFLs whipping boy it was James Harrison, who at one point received 4 "random" piss tests over a 7 month period, and $175,000 in fines in one season. He was also suspended one game the next year.

Goodell also suspended Ben Roethlisberger 6 games based on an accusation. BR was never arrested or charged. Unprecedented. His punishment was way more severe than Ray Rice who was caught on video smacking his ***** up. Also way more severe than Ms Pac Mac when he was caught on video ***** slapping a woman at a bar (no fine, no suspension) after his posse shot up a strip club.

Also the Steelers were the ONLY team vote against the current CBA because it gave Goodell too much power. 

Plenty of evidence that there isn't a love fest between Rooney and Rog.
