[NFL] NFL's Roger Goodell Calls NY Mayor To Get In Good Graces

On Monday, New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg offered harsh criticism for the NFL and the New York Giants, suggesting that the team and the league acted improperly by failing to go to the New York Police Department and offer to help with its investigation of the shooting involving Plaxico Burress. “The Giants should have picked up the phone right away as good corporate citizens,” Bloomberg said. “I don’t care whether [there is] the legal responsibility for them to do it.” Now NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell is taking steps to get back in the mayor’s good graces. Sal Paolantonio of ESPN reports that Goodell made a personal phone call to Bloomberg to pledge full cooperation from the league and the Giants in the Police Department’s investigation of Burress.

ok.....how many of our employers would call the police in this situation?......None?? That's kind of ridiculous of Blomberg if you ask me and the more he shoots off his mouth the more any jury is going to end up feeling compassion for Burress. Blomberg should shush and let police handle this. Does he get involved in every shooting incident like this? I am beginning to think he's a secret Skins fan or maybe even a Cowboys fan.....won't even bring the Eagles into this or Patriots.
