Shank On Roger Goodell's Press Conference

Shank was on hand yesterday to cover the NFL commissioner's press conference, primarily focused on DeflateGate.

PHOENIX — The Super Bowl is Sunday. But it’s Game On for Bob Kraft vs. Roger Goodell.

NFL commissioner Goodell, speaking to the media for the first time since
“Deflategate,” said during his “State of the NFL” address Friday that the AFC Championship game in Foxborough was played with some footballs that were not in compliance with the rules, and that the league is trying to determine whether “this was the result of deliberate action.’’

I'll summarize the rest of the column for you - Goodell's had a bad year, the bag job of an 'investigation' into DeflateGate is pretty much a foregone conclusion, and Goodell makes a lot of money. That last point is mentioned thrice in Shank's column, just in case you missed it the first two times.
