roger goodell is the commissioners of the nfl.sioner tells you to come to the office, then you come to the office. that is what -- he doesn't have you, he sends out a request and he tells you to come to the office. >> so you see this more on kap and less on goodell and using the video and not calling and not having a conversation with him. because the offer is out there? >> both parties, i think both parties share some fault. i thought it was in poor taste for the nfl to use colin kaepernick and eric reid in the video when neither one of those players are playing or on a current roster right now. they have been the most outspoken players starting four years ago. and for the nfl to use that, in their messaging, i just thought it was in poor taste. >> what about the playing of lift every voice and sing during this first week of games, the ability of coaches to wear decals or even some of the stickers with names of victims these gestures are unquestionably meaningful to a lot of people. does it go far enough for you? >> well, it does

joining us exclusively is the commissioner of the nfl roger goodell. joining us today >> good morning, julia it's great to be with you. and it's great to hear you say the season is only a week away that's great news. >> well, assuming the season, everything starts as planned the big question is how different things will look both for your players and for fans this year. >> well, i think it's safe to say, julia, everything is different in 2020 for us the off season has been different from the draft all the way through our off season planning, off season training, to this training camps themselves obviously we're having to put a lot of focus on health and safety that is number one priority for us of our players, of our coaches, of all our personnel, our fans and so, all that planning has been, you know, extraordinary amount of work and frankly has gone incredibly well through at least our training camp and put us in this position now where the week to go before our season where we are confident we'll be able to play not just the start of our season but t

. >> reporter: free agent safety eric reid calling out the nfl and roger goodell for using images ofk in a video campaign that's designed to promote unity. he feels it's hypocritical. it's a video of alicia keys singing "lift every voice." this video was shown before all of the games during week one and in a pair of tweets reed says goodell has not called colin kaepernick to apologize for how he was treated. goodell has said he was wrong for not listening back in 2016 and that he supports player's protests. goodell uses video courageously kneeling to legitimize their pr while perpetuating systemic oppression by continuing to rob colin of his career. it is diabolical. pittsburgh steelers stood together before monday night's game against new york giants. players held a banner reading steelers against racism. ben roethlisberger made a return. big ben threw three touchdown passes for the 50th time in his career. that is a new franchise record. pittsburgh winning by 10. in the late game kicker stephen gostkowski went from 0 to hero. he missed not one, not two, but three field goals agains

will fans be in the stands will players kneel we will hear what commissioner roger goodell had to sayatonbc. that's next on "power lunch. >>> time for today's power movers we start with peloton again. analysts say the company's biggest challenge is keeping up with demand. that's a pretty good problemto have peloton up to about $94 a share today. >>> smiledirect is up after several executives buying a combined 2 million shares. >>> this is a company behind jack daniels with earning better than expected despite challenges, including to its travel-related retail sales. and whiskey and lemonade, so some product innovation there. >>> very interesting the first week of nfl is just eight days away, and not only is the nfl going to play, they are planning to have fans, in person, at several stadiums. eric chemi joins us with how they plan to pull this off >> roger goodell is hoping more stadiums will begin allowing fans as the season progresses. for now only a handful of teams will have spectators in the first weekend. goodell says that's up to local government officials the imbalance has ups

what is your sense of how that is working and what goodell thinks? >> working well so well.he national football league given the number of teams. basketball and hockey have done an exceptional job with the bubble finishing up their years going to canada for the nhl and nba in orlando and wnba in florida as well. it wasn't feasible for football but they learned what worked for the other sports, some of the bumps in the road and the ways around that, that major league baseball encountered over the last few weeks. they've got on it the start line. we haven't missed a game. we didn't have a preseason but the super bowl happened. this is the normal day for the opener, so the league is on schedule. that doesn't mean they'll get to the finish line necessarily but at least they got to the starting line and looks like they're in pretty good shape in terms of the testing. >> talk about the significance of having fans in the stands, because that really is not something we've seen in these leagues that people watch. >> no, nascar has had fans, there have been some races with fans but in

, the nfl will feature social justice statements in the end zones, this season commissioner roger goodell says that the phrases will include things like it takes all of us to end, racism and will be painted in each team's end zone all season long. it's one of the many social justice initiatives that the league is planning, including helmet decals and a push to vote. goodell says the league encourage teams to offer their stadiums as polling centers and all the facilities will be closed on election day so that the players and staff can get out and vote. 4 zone forecast time as we take a live peek outside looking. >>that ahead at the bay bridge and in the foreground there san francisco's embarcadero time now to check on our weather with chief meteorologist lawrence karnow going to get yeah, this is going to be an impressive he wave somewhat similar last one that we had we had the record breaking temperatures around the bay area right now the fog that's moving over san bruno mountain little breeze right through the gap there and you can see outdoor sfo right now winds kind of kicking up outsi

now -- [laughter] all of that pandering and compliance and accommodation by roger goodell and the restgoing for naught. colin kaepernick just being who he is. >>> well, joining us tonight is larry elder, host of the larry elder show on the salem radio network, executive producer of the documentary "uncle tom." let's start with kaepernick. i can't believe this guy. he has been treated like a rock star, and now concern and rogerr good -- and roger goodell has done everything but kneel himself before the great activist, marxist, whatever you want to call him, kaepernick. they bow down every time he says anything. so does nike. so do too many, in my opinion, corporations in this country, public corporations who are turning over money, air time and supporting him and the left in this, in this broadside. your thoughts. >> well, it shows you how well the trump economy is doing notwithstanding the coronavirus pandemic shutdown, because colin kaepernick apparently is working. look, i keep waiting for just one of these athletes, lou, just one -- aside from herschel walker -- to stand up and say

nfl commissioner roger goodell really wants to take a lead on this issue. to say one thing. i'm not saying nfl fans don't believe in social justice because many of them, many of them do. but here's the problem that they have from this standpoint and this could really affect tv ratings and the ability to sell advertising. the last time the nfl flirted with social justice a couple years ago, when fans -- when players began to kneel, fans boycotted the games. not just at the games, but mainly watching it on tv. ratings went down significantly. this is where i talk to a lot of nfl executives. while they are all for social justice, they are all for, you know, some sort of political expression, many of them support taking one knee in the past. they are saying listen, we are playing with fire here. not only do we have half the revenues because the gate is not going to be there. we depend on tv now. we depend on ratings. what happens if the nfl fan, which by the way, liz, skews conservative, skews military, conservative and now, what happens if that nfl fan gets tu

we don't ask mitch mcconnell to play football, we shouldn't ask roger goodell to play politics. as you suggest, sports. but it's also, to watch how politically active, for example, nike has become, this is a public company that's being run as if the hr department is the ceo and has a majority on the board. they're peddling a lot of stuff that is, it is divisive, and it is, it is not uplifting. it is simply carrying a very specific message to an audience that has not invited them into their homes for that purpose. the fiduciary responsibility they have is a weighty one, so so should be their responsibility to avoid politics of any kind. >> yeah. listen, i think the greatest thing that americans have in their quiver here is that they have the power of the wallet, and they have the power of the ballot. and this election will decide a lot of these issues, and where you put your money on products each day also decides those issues. those americans that are disaffected by whatever companies have the opportunity to make their say by not buying those products. and i think you're going t

in june, commissioner roger goodell apologized for the league's prior stance. due to the pandemic, the stadium had 16,000 in attendance, not the 70,000 capacity for arrowhead stadium. all were wearing masks except for eating and drinking. there were signs of protest among those in attendance. but also both end zones were painted with messages of end racism and it takes all of us. before the game, the song lift every voice and sing was played which some have called the black national anthem. the chiefs stood arm in arm in the field. alex okafor took a knee for the national anthem sung by the r&b duo who wore t-shirts of george floyd and breonna taylor. after the texans took the team, both teams joined hands for a moment of silence dedicated to equality in our country. several fans were heard booing. >> thank you. >> on the back of many helmets were messages that the nfl had approved including stop hate, it takes all of us and racism and black lives matter. all of this social change is not enough for some. already the miami dolphins have said they'll not be on th

this morning we'll hear from commissioner roger goodell. >>> all that plus let the playoffs begin. >> on the first pitch sends the ball well hit out to right center field on the run. it's to shields and it's gone! >> the major league post season gets underway with a bang after a season unlike any other. >> drives one to deep right field. >> and get ready. a record eight more games happening today. wednesday, september 30th, 2020. >> announcer: from nbc news, this is "today" with savannah guthrie and hoda kotb from studio 1a in rockefeller plaza. >>> and good morning, everybody. welcome to "today." it is wednesday morning and we are glad to have you with us. >> you were up late. i think a lot of americans were up late. we were ready for a heated debate, but i don't think anybody was prepared for the way things unfolded last night in cleveland. >> yeah. just talking to folks, people seemed really shaken by what they saw. a lot of words being used by republicans and democrats alike to describe, none of it good. embarrassing, disgraceful, a train wreck. big question though. what impact is

you had roger goodell, nfl commissioner didn't acknowledge the reason for his protest until this summer that was four years later saying that the league was wrong, right, not to listen to kaepernick, and then goodell's video was only after a group of players demanded a response in the wake of george floyd's death. so now you have this season. you have "lift every voice and sing," which is really known as the black national anthem. it's being played before the games. players can wear patches of victims showing systemic racism. players for the miami dolphins plan to sit out both anthems. i want to play this clip explaining why. so here's part of it. >> lift every voice and sing is just a way to save face. lose the mask and stop hiding the real game face. >> so if my dad was a soldier but the cops killed my brother, do i stand for one anthem and kneel for the other? >> we skip the song and dance. >> and as a team we will stay inside. >> we need changed hearts, not just a response to pressure. >> enough, no more fluff and empty gestures. >> we need owners with influence and pockets bigger t
