Roger Goodell is ruining football

Most players can understand what Roger Goodell is trying to do by making all these rules to protect players, and as a fan and former player of the sport I also understand what he is trying to do.  BUT, as of recently when he suspended Saints LB Johnathan Vilma, I can no longer support such a man.  Vilma is now suspended for a entire season, but has appealed.  Along with Vilma, three other players have also been suspended but not an entire year like Vilma received.  This suspension was given by Goodell because of the players "involvement" in the bounty scandle.  This is absurd.  No players in the game of football ever try to intentionally hurt another play, there may be a player that a coach says make sure you hit him as hard as you can, but there is never any intention to go out and hurt another player.  The coaches that were telling the players to do these things were already taken care of and given suspensions, now that Goodell is going after players is an absolute disgrace.  This guy needs to go.
