A Brief and Obvious Point About Roger Goodell Making Just Under $30 Million In 2013

The NFL is, according to the Internal Revenue Service and the legal definition of corporate America, a non-profit organization.

Pause for laughter, wait, make that settle motion with the hands...

No, seriously. The NFL is non-profit. I am not making this up.

Also, the guy who is shoehorning a Super Bowl into a region which currently is digging out from under a foot of snow with -15 wind chill, mostly because it's under the little-known rule that All New Stadiums Get Super Bowls, Whether The Stadium Was Necessary Or In Any Way Notable...

Got paid 125% of the salary of the highest-paid player in the league. Without having to put himself at risk of injury, statistical performance, or even venturing outside into the elements, assuming he didn't, well, want to. And why would you want to, really?

Which leads me to just one thought, really...

How are the northern New Jersey Home Depots and Lowe's stocked for pitchforks and torches?
