now bill simmons from espn get suspended for making a good point:
I just think not enough is being made out of the fact that they knew about the tape and they knew what was on it. Goodell, if he didn't know what was on that tape, he's a liar. Im just saying it. He is lying. I think that dude is lying. If you put him up on a lie detector test that guy would fail. For all these people to pretend they didn't know is such f**king bullshit. It really is - it's such f**king bullshit. And for him to go in that press conference and pretend otherwise, I was insulted. I really was.
The best point that a lot of people have made about this is this is exactly why he fined and suspended Sean Payton for a season [for Bountygate]. Sean Payton was like, 'I didn't know.' [Goodell] was like, 'Well ignorance [is not a excuse]' and suspended him for a year. This is the same exact situation and it's worse, because he knew and he's a liar.
