It was a perfect storm for an unpleasant reception for Goodell. It’s commonplace for commissioners to be booed by fans of their respective league, and the City of Brotherly Love has a reputation for being home to sports’ most ruthless fans.
We have a feeling New England Patriots fans especially got a kick out of the raucous boos.
