Long before the last domestic violence, child abuse and drug abuse issues were being exploited by the media, I have questioned the non-profit status of organizations like the NFL and NHL. Seriously, these gold mines are churning out money and profits. PAY YOUR TAXES. Revenues of over $9 billion, yes B as in billion. STFU. What do you think? Times are good for the National Football League. Viewership is up. For the 47th year in a row, Harris Interactive named pro football the most popular sport in America. And with overall revenues north of $9 billion, the NFL is the most lucrative sports league on the planet. Thats not enough for NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell. He wants to nearly triple the leagues revenues to $25 billion by 2027—a mind-bogglingly large number. But heres an even more shocking fact: The NFL pays nothing in taxes on all those revenues. Not a nickel. And now the anti-corruption organization Rootstrikers wants to put an end to the NFLs free ride. m.motherjones/mojo/2013/12/nfl-tax-exempt-status-rootstrikers-roger-goodell
