The commissioner can basically do whatever he wants.The problem is that the Commissioner is Robert Kraft's best friend so the Commissioner is always lenient on the Pats despite repeated cheating by the Pats.
When Draymond Green was called for a flagrant foul in Game 4 of the NBA Finals, the NBA didn't say "Well, it's the NBA Finals so we can't suspend him during the NBA Finals so we'll wait until the regular season to suspend him." The NBA suspended him for the very next game, which was Game 5 of the NBA Finals.
Brady gets caught cheating in the AFC Championship Game to advance to the Super Bowl and Goodell says "Well, we can't suspend Brady for the Super Bowl even though he got caught cheating in the AFC Championship Game so we're going to reward Brady's cheating by letting him play in a Super Bowl that he cheated to advance to and we're going to delay hiring an investigator until after the Super Bowl so that Brady won't miss any postseason games and then we'll just give Brady a slap on the wrist (a meaningless 4 regular season games suspension) for cheating in an AFC Championship Game.
And then there was the bullshit that Belichick and his protégé McDaniels pulled. Belichick agrees to be head coach of the Jets and then breaks his word and goes to the Pats. McDaniels agrees to be head coach of the Colts and then breaks his word and goes back to the Pats.
In the NCAA, if a player made a commitment to a college and then changes his mind and decides he wants to play somewhere else, that's OK but that player has to sit out a year. That's what should've happened to Belichick and McDaniels. They should've had to sit out a year from coaching in the NFL for breaking their word and wasting the time of the Jets and Colts. But since the Goodell is Kraft's best friend, Goodell just let them get away with that bullshit.

The Referees are horrible and not held accountable for bad calls like players are for making bad plays.Agreed. Refs should be held accountable for blown calls. Like Walt Coleman. He's the moron who made the biggest blown call in NFL history when he reversed Brady's obvious fumble on the Tuck Rule play and said "the QB's arm was moving forward" even though the replay clearly showed Brady's arm wasn't moving forward when the ball was slapped out of his hands. How the fuck does Walt Coleman still get to keep his job after such an egregious blown call? Because Goodell is Kraft's best friend and lets the Pats get away with all kinds of bullshit.
