Maine Beach Boy AKA NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell “Is A Pathetic, Woke, Liberal Schmuck”

National conservative TV and radio host Wayne Allyn Root just had to get that off his chest.

“Roger Goodell Is A Pathetic, Woke, Liberal Schmuck” – Wayne Allyn Root

Root, who grew up with Goodell, isn’t surprised his boyhood chum from a different mum rubs elbows with the rich liberal elites in Prouts Neck, Scarborough, Maine, in his $12.8 million “beach house.”

The two, Goodell and Root, grew up in Bronxville, New York.

But the differences stop there.

Goodell went to an all-white school while Root went to a predominantly black school.

“He’s an arrogant, entitled, elitist, know-it-all, who had everything handed to him his whole life on a silver platter,” Root says in a new column blasting Goodell for, among other things, his ridiculous choice of entertainment at the Super Bowl.

“Roger is a woke, liberal schmuck who sides with national anthem kneelers; dedicates the NFL to gays, lesbians and transgenders; and chooses rapper ‘Bad Bunny’ for the Super Bowl halftime show- where he sang in Spanish and threatened to wear a dress.”

(President Trump apparently agreed, tweeting “There’s nothing inspirational about this mess of a halftime show.)

“Roger also chose to start the pregame off with the Black National Anthem,” Root said. “He also shared with the media days ago how upset he is that only white men were hired for all the NFL’s recent head coach openings.

“Roger and I couldn’t be more different. He is guilt-ridden because he has had everything in his life handed to him on a silver platter by his rich, powerful daddy, the senator.”

Goodell’s father was Charles Goodell, who lost re-election to the U.S. Senate at the hands of a candidate supported by Root’s father’s newly-formed Conservative Party, James Buckley, in 1970.

“Charles Goodell was so liberal, he ran on the Republican and liberal party lines,” Root says. “He was a RINO – a Republican in name only. Everything he believed in was the opposite of my father, who was a conservative Barry Goldwater Republican.

“Incumbent U.S. Senator Charles Goodell was humiliated by my dad’s third-party underdog candidate. Goodell only got 24 percent of the vote.

“This explains everything about Roger Goodell. Like father, like son. Both woke, liberal schmucks.”

By favoring the Black National Anthem and a strange liberal Puerto Rican rapper for the halftime show for the Super Bowl, “Roger Goodell chose to purposely spit in the face of his best customers – the people who made the NFL what it is today and pay the NFL’s bills,” Root wrote.

“Roger Goodell’s $50 million annual salary and the salaries of all those rich pampered athletes are paid mostly by macho, testosterone-driven males who voted three times for President Donald J. Trump.

“I repeat – Roger Goodell is a schmuck.”
