On Friday afternoon, while I was on a train ride to New York — during which I witnessed a man in a Jeter jersey proposing to his girlfriend on a train platform in North Jersey while surrounded by about four other dudes in Jeter jerseys — Roger Goodell was standing behind a podium spouting nonsense. No one was especially impressed, soothed, or had their trust in the NFL reinstated. Just kidding, no one ever had trust in the NFL.
In response, in the way that is quickly becoming his signature, John Oliver briefly but sufficiently went at Roger Goodell by letting Roger Goodell’s own words take him down. It’s nice to laugh at Goodell to quell our anger at him, but we really shouldn’t look past that question TMZ asked him.
