PLAYERS:
Roger Goodell
The city of New Orleans still has quite the bone to pick with commissioner Roger Goodell, even post Bountygate.
The Buffalo News via profootballtalk has reported that several bars in the city have actively taken part in showing Goodell a piece of their mind. Local bar ‘The Jimani’ has already pledged not to give service to Goodell, even going so far as to hang photo of Goodell with the words ‘Do not serve this man’.
Dozens of other establishments have joined on board to launch a boycott against Goodell.
Nice to see the city hasn’t lost one bit of its charm…
