"In 1981, a recent college graduate wrote letters to all the teams in the NFL seeking an internship. Every one of them rejected him, but the New York league office invited him to "stop by." He did and managed to talk his way into an internship. By 1984 he was an assistant in the NFL's PR department, and only three years later he became assistant to the president of the AFC. Today, Roger Goodell is commissioner of the NFL and makes decisions that affect a huge swath of the sports world every day," states CSP.
