Everybody wants Roger Goodell fired! Ann Killion at our beloved Chron says "Emperor Goodell's reign should be suspended indefinitely." He's not a real emperor, I don't think. Emperor of Fucking Up, maybe. ZING. Meanwhile, Grantland wants to know "What Does It Take to Get Roger Goodell Fired?" and even Vice has managed to look up from the cocaine table long enough to muse "Wait, why hasn't NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell been fired yet?"
So yeah, what would it take? Let's look at some scenarios.
ACTION: Roger Goodell deletes NFL's Season Recording of "What Not to Wear."
EXPLANATION: "Come on, it's like the same thing every episode. There is no way you were going to watch all those. We were at 82%. Come on."
RESULT: NFL glares at Goodell; Goodell not fired.
ACTION: Roger Goodell calls Cowboys fans "the most loathsome, repellent sacks of supposedly organic matter ever to leak excrement onto the Earth."
EXPLANATION: "Well, it's true."
RESULT: Nothing. It is true. Goodell not fired.
ACTION: Roger Goodell drafts Wes Welker in the first round of his fantasy draft.
EXPLANATION: "I like him. He plays with a lot of heart."
RESULT: Roger Goodell's fantasy team, "Great Players in the NFL," loses week 1 by 81 points to "Peyton's Manhole." Roger Goodell not fired.
ACTION: Roger Goodell lists Pink's "Don't Let Me Get Me" as "My ATF Song" in a Tumblr questionnaire that's going around.
EXPLANATION: "Pink totally rules! This song is so badass."
RESULT: NFL stares at Roger Goodell for a long time and then walks away. Roger Goodell not fired.
ACTION: Roger Goodell tries to claim 3 different pints of Ben & Jerry's are "one item" to get under 12-item threshhold.
EXPLANATION: "They're all the same thing. They're all ice cream. You could put them all in one bowl together."
RESULT: NFL explains that the test is whether the scanner beeps more than once. One scanner beep = one item. 3 pints = 3 items. Goodell sent to regular line behind a woman with two overflowing carts and 5 children aged 3 to 9. Goodell not fired.
ACTION: Roger Goodell is short 50 cents to purchse Funnyuns at Pak N Go in Arlington, Texas. Takes 50 cents from Jerry Jones's change cup in car while Jerry Jones uses bathroom.
