Ever since Roger Goodell took over as NFL commissioner in 2006, he's been a no-nonsense guy. He decided he was going to put his stamp on the league by being a disciplinarian, making it seem more and more likely that Goodell's lasting image in this league will be the commissioner who wasn't afraid to impose harsh penalties on any player—even if you're a superstar in the NFL.
