    “Long before his time in the NFL, Goodell was a fierce ally to his younger brother, Michael, who is gay. Michael told TIME Magazine in 2012 that Goodell would often fight the bullies who attempted to torment him, stating that he “would have been beat up a lot” if not for his brother’s protection.

    “I love Michael and I’m proud of him,” Goodell says now.”

    Nah. But it’s nice that he feels he has to pretend.

      They might kinda do it sometimes in a transparently pandering way so long as it makes them money, but no not in any meaningful way. Roger Goodell is a shitbag liar
