Why does Sen. Arlen Specter want to meet with NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell?

Asked by jz1220 (829points) February 12th, 2008

I understand that Spector wants to know why the NFL destroyed the Patriots’ tapes, but what does the Senate Judiciary Committee have to do with the NFL?

I didn’t know he was interested. Now I am curious too. Great question!

I know Congress does question the pro sports leagues occasionally about anti-trust kinds of issues, but this sounds different, a little like meddling. Anyone know?
