OK, so Marshawn Lynch got caught with a gun in his car and was sentenced to community service. First of all, why is it that Roger Goodell himself is issuing this suspension and not one of the NFL disciplinarians? Does Goodell need to see his name in the headlines? Why not just say that the NFL is suspending Marshwn Lynch? Does Roger Goodell actually do all of this suspension paperwork himself?
So far in his tenure, Roger Goodell is a poor substitute for Paul Tagliabue. It's like he got kicked upstairs one level too far. And one more thing on this rant - we hope the NFL is screwed on its witch-hunt over the players testing positive for diuretics. You already know the story of the Vikings D-line players getting suspensions by Goodell and then winning in court. Christopher Stolee says "Go Vikings!"
