The poll, conducted by NBC News by the Marist Corporation, also doesn't share the same view of the Commissioner as special interest groups do.

While the sporting experts on ESPN, FOX and other networks were spouting off about how Commissioner Roger Goodell should have been, or should be fired over the league's handling of various domestic violence issues,  fans have collectively yawned.

 According to the website Hot Air,  Americans are still watching, and frankly, getting tired of being preached at.

A recent NBC-Marist poll shows about 90% of Americans who classify themselves as football fans are not going to change their viewing habits in any way, shape, or form over this recent turmoil.

Fans, however, are not happy with the way the NFL has handled domestic violence.  According again to Hot Air, the poll:

(The NBC-Marist Poll) " which also finds that a majority of Americans—including nearly six in 10 self-described football fans—say they disapprove of the way the NFL has handled the domestic-violence allegations.
