Not to sound insensitive but unless Goodell was part of the intensive care team on Monday night, that was his job Monday night until a statement released by mid-day on Tuesday. So many executives around the globe would be fired over this lack of decision and accountability. I cannot believe the way this is being handled. In the moment of Monday and early Tuesday, the entire league and its fans would have accepted any outcome. That is shrinking considerably with each day that goes by and the continued avoidance of the situation. The public-facing message Monday night should have been exactly what it was, that this was about the players and the families. But behind the scenes, this needed to be solved. Absolutely unbelievable. And shady as hell quite honestly if they wait until after this weekend's games to make a decision.
Right, as of 5:37pm on Wednesday the 4th of January the NFL stats "Talks have just begun... "
Also, you notice they really just talk about the game being canceled and playoff seeding scenarios and zero talks of when it could be replayed. A decision won't be announced until Sunday after the Bills/ Pats and Bengals/Ravens games. Too much revenue out there for these games to have a perception of meaning nothing. Cynical and harsh but a 100% truth bomb. It's just the way the world works.
