Im very surprised he took a paycut. I know he still has a high salary but dont know any commissioner of any league who would take a paycut. Maybe Gary Bettman should take a paycut also:)

NEW YORK - NFL commissioner Roger Goodell is taking a pay cut and the league staff has been trimmed by 15 per cent because of the reeling economy, the NFL confirmed Wednesday.

Goodell, meanwhile, voluntarily took a cut of 20-25 per cent from the US$11-million salary and bonuses he was to receive in the 2008 fiscal year, which ends March 31. He and other league executives are freezing their salaries for 2009.

Although the paycut is significant in dollar terms, it is simply a symbolic gesture and public relations in order to show the fans that NFL officials are sympathetic to the plight of Americans in a troubled economy. It has absolutely no impact on the game nor the salaries of the players.

It does show however, that the NFL is light years ahead of Major League Baseball which is run by a group of grumpy old men who pay players unrealistic salaries.

It will be interesting to watch attendance figures in professional sports this year to see if attendance is down.
