3, I would go lower but he did fix the overtime rules which was a huge for me, also the rookie contract thing was a solid move.

But other than that, without going HUGELY into his history.

- Making the game far less entertaining from the hits side of things.
- Ridiculous fines.
- Lockout tensions have been high
- Replacement refs

3.  The man is a tyrant, plain and simple.  He says he wants player safety, but then he adds Thursday night games, only giving teams a true three days rest before the next game.  Sure they get an extra three days on the back end after that Thursday game, but by then the damage could already be done.

I said 7. his job is to make the owners as much money as possible while making sure the game of football is protected in the present and future. Plain and simple and he's done that.

My only problem with him is wanting 18 games while proclaiming player safety.

You know what, everyone who is bitching about the game being soft, you're still watching it arent you? Thought so. Its like how people who complain about Vince McMahon and company are making WWE less and less entertaining yet still watch it.
