| 0:00.0 | So yesterday, something went viral around the internet, and it was three dudes in Patriot |
| 0:06.5 | jerseys, and they were standing with Roger Goodell. |
| 0:10.3 | Which, by the way, can we say what he did yesterday, as much as we hate the guy, was as far |
| 0:14.7 | as getting people to soften the blow when he arrives here at the opening game was brilliant, |
| 0:20.3 | because now you can no longer say it's his first time back at Gillette Stadium since the deflakeate thing. |
| 0:25.4 | That kind of storyline goes away. |
| 0:27.0 | Yeah, it was kind of premeditated in his preemptive strike. |
| 0:30.9 | Right. |
| 0:31.5 | So he comes in and he obviously wants to publicize that he's there because he's the commissioner. |
| 0:37.3 | I mean, he'd be an idiot not to. So he comes on... wants to publicize that he's there because he's the commissioner. |
| 0:39.5 | I mean, he'd be an idiot not to. |
| 0:42.3 | So he comes on in. |
| 0:47.9 | And I don't know where they are, but these three guys are there and they have Patriots jersey's on and they take a picture with him. |
| 0:50.7 | And the first thing I think when I see that picture is this is staged. |
| 0:54.6 | This is something that these guys, there's no way he just walked into the terminal and these |
| 0:59.6 | guys are like, hey, Roger Goodell, let's take a great photo. And they smiled like that. |
| 1:03.1 | Because he's pulled stuff like this before where he's got the crowd in front of him, |
| 1:06.8 | everyone wanting to get the way his questions were vetted at the Super Bowl thing and he wouldn't |
| 1:11.7 | take questions from only people who's uh were approved beforehand and and the guy with the earpiece |
| 1:16.9 | he does everything to control how his image comes across well i mean but then again he's not |
| 1:22.1 | going to put pictures of people flicking him off i mean so he's well i i believe that he met these guys |
| 1:27.1 | we did well here's so here's what happened let. Let's just kind of, before we jump ahead, so that picture comes out. And, me, people were saying, okay, well, these are interns. I mean, what is this? This is strange. So I put the Brian McCarthy, the NFL PR guy, tweeted out the picture and said, great night for a game. at NFL commission will be back for kickoff events and attend at Chiefs versus at Patriots on 9-7. And so I tweeted, I said, it's my goal before tomorrow morning to prove these guys are plants. Anyone know who they are. So I want to just see if there are plants or not. So what ended up happening was there was a guy who writes for off the monster sports or something who got an email from them. |
