Goodell's pay this year is 30 mil and along with alot of other teams seem to dodge paying taxes. How can this be fair because they say they are non-profit and it a load of crap. How corrupt this system is.

You can bet your ass we'll be paying taxes.

General Electric does not pay taxes, they get money back. Same for Facebook, they do not pay any, they received 417 million dollars back. The banks which were bailed out do not including BA and couple of others, same story. http://theweek.com/article/index/213590/why-doesnt-general-electric-pay-taxes http://thinkprogress.org/economy/2013/02/14/1597741/facebook-pays-no-taxes/?mobile=nc

Its more like the governing "body" of institutions arent for money, while the ones there over does.

In other words, the "NFL" doesnt make a profit, the teams do. Then the NFL just takes that money.
