When big public figures decide to utilize their own hashtag in order to answer questions from fans on Twitter, sometimes it doesn’t turn out too well. Just ask NCAA president Mark Emmert. The #AskEmmert event was hilarious for those of us following along, but I am pretty sure those involved with ESPN Radio’s Mike & Mike were none too pleased.
Now two days before the draft, NFL commissioner Roger Goodell has taken to the social media platform with expected results. Some of the questions were well thought out. His answers likewise. But we aren’t going to bore you with all of that.
#AskCommish How long until the NFL puts ButtFumble on the Shield?

Yes please. I can hear it coming from Goodell’s mouth now, “protect the butt.”
You think Batman could beat Captain America in a best 4 out of 7 thumb wrestling contest? #AskCommish

I’d have to go with Batman here. Sneaky strong texting digits.

So much debate going around on this one. Hopefully Goodell decides he has time to answer. The Warriors future depends on it.
Why are you the way that you are? NFL was fun. you try to make it not that way. I hate so much the person you choose to be. #AskCommish

.@nflcommish instead of banning celebrations, why not get down to brass tacks & ask the players to be "less black"? #AskCommish
