NFL Cuts 150 Jobs
Even with today’s economy as it is, there was a common belief within the industry that sports were protected from the economic downturn. Today, we’ve learned that isn’t completely true. According to the New York Times, NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell has announced that the NFL will cut 150 jobs after the upcoming Super Bowl. Compared to some other recent corporate layoffs 150 may seem like a small number, but it represents nearly 10% of the NFL staff. Job cuts will affect the New York, New Jersey, and LA offices for the NFL.
