Sure, just because he was made commissioner as part of an owner coup and commissioned to sit on his ass as a stooge for a decade or so and then melted into the woodwork, while his entire sport became corrupt and the people who propped him up made a fortune and then claimed it wasn’t us. How could anyone possibly blame him? It’s not Ronald McDonald’s fault that hamburgers are bad for you!
