"Got DAMN! Goodell's salary in 2011 was $29 million (swipe)"


  

          

His salary tripled over the previous year. This is laughable considering the players were locked out over the NFL trying to control salary.

Roger Goodell made $29M-plus in '11

There was a time during the NFL lockout in 2011 that Roger Goodell was voluntarily earning a $1 salary. With a collective bargaining agreement eventually reached with the players, and only one preseason game missed, Goodell's compensation went up quite a bit.

A copy obtained of the league's tax return confirms the commissioner earned $29.49 million in 2011. The league's general counsel, Jeff Pash, who also reduced his salary to $1 during the lockout, came away with $8.8 million in total compensation.

Goodell earned $11.6 million in 2010.

"The NFL is the most successful and best-managed sports league in the world," Falcons owner Arthur Blank said in a statement obtained by The Sports Business Daily. "This is no small part due to Roger's leadership and the value he brings to the table in every facet of the sport and business of the league. His compensation reflects that."

The Sports Business Daily was the first to report the numbers.

Goodell's compensation likely makes him the highest-paid commissioner in sports. Major League Baseball commissioner Bud Selig and NBA commissioner David Stern earn in the range of $20 million annually.

In which case, yes, there's plenty to see here. But thanks for trying to reinforce the status quo.

of people you could point to before getting to Roger Goodell's name on the ones with the biggest disparity between earnings & production.

so I can't be surprised at the top of an actually financially healthy multi-billion dollar corporation making that kind of scratch even if I don't think he's done a very good job.

which goes to show you how shitty NFL owners are, cuz they didn't wanna pony up money to pay refs, lol.

Team owners' profit margins have to be incredible.

and what sport will do it first?

I think its kind of crazy how long they keep their job, think it should change more often

Besides MJ, I don't know any majority black owners without looking it up I guess so prob will be another 10 to 20 years at least...
