It gets a little old after a while. 

Every year my wife asked why they boo him and I just shrug my shoulders and say "that's what they do". lol

There is a breakdown in respect starting from the top of this country all the way down to the common man.  Too much anger and finger pointing blame.  For sports and entertainment, it is a toss up for me.

 

To me the bigger impact was the Tunsil stuff and him being sabatoged.  Social media sure is fun...  no.

When I went to the 2011 draft everyone booed Goodell. But I don't mind him, he came into the line and met and shook hands, took pictures with all of us. Nice dude.

The best commissioner in the history of sports, David Stern (NBA), used to get booed during every selection during his tenure.  It became common practice to boo the commish and he rolled with it and played along with the crowd.  Personally, I think this is a carryover from the NBA tradition where, in Chicago, NBA is King.

I don't care for the boos. Kinda childish. I've never been a huge fan of Goodells, but I also realize he wrongfully gets blamed for most the things people complain about the most. If anything, I kind of like the guy a tad more after seeing him smiling (almost like he's holding back laughter) as he's walking to the podium.

Not really

You'd think people could get over it..

 

he's the all powerful all mighty GODell... tough whiskers.

 

It was kinda funny and worthy after the whole lockout situation...

 

now... not so much.

i love the tradition of it, my favorite is when he had soldiers announce the pick a couple years ago and they got applauded then he tried to run up and piggy back their cheers and it switched to boos really quickly

The only times he gets cheered are when he brings the military, a former player or a kid out with him.

Like i stated in another thread. The look on goodell face was priceless. When seen the card with another UCLA Defender picked and Jack still sitting there.

Though I don't like the boo's, I think it would be funny if every selection he brought out a kid or veteran grinning ear to ear with some swag in his step as if to say "Ha, boo me now you [BLEEP]!!"

He is not a great commissioner.

He doesn't give a flute about whether anyone thinks he's good or not.
