06:12 AM ET 08.10 | The commissioner of the NFL should be on injured-reserve. He's not sure how it happened, but while climbing Mount Rainier to raise money for the United Way a month ago, Roger Goodell dislocated a rib. It might have happened just from the intense breathing because of the scarcity of oxygen that high above sea level.

God hurt himself?? How does that happen?

Who climbs a mountain for charity? Can't he just do a walk-a-ton like everyone else.

Apparently this is a very slow news day for T&R.

Are we sure he didn't shoot himself in the leg?

How exactly do you dislocate a rib? There's no joints or sockets attatched to your ribs. I can see breaking it or something, but this sounds a little off.

He tried pulling the rib out to make himself a woman. Cold and lonely on that mountain, and he was just looking for a little "comfort."

Damn... I didn't know you could dislocate a rib.

I'm sure you're right--brothas who have been punished for their stupid behavior.

The commish does. I think it's cool he went mountaineering instead of doing something lame like a "walk-a-ton".

Is he that dumb, look at the chin he is carrying around. He probally has at least a "C" cup and has not seen his genetalia with out mirrors for a few years. This tard forgets he is no spring chicken.

it is really a pulled or strained muscle not a dislocation like the shoulder per say.
