Maine police asked to watch Roger Goodell's home

NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell has asked police in Maine to protect his house after upholding the four-game suspension of Patriots quarterback Tom Brady.

According to the Portland Press-Herald, Goodell owns a home in Scarborough worth $6.5 million, and fears retribution from area Patriots fans after his ruling against their superstar.

"They did reach out and let us know about the decision and that it might not be popular," said police chief Robbie Moulton.

There haven't been any reports of any damage or any threats near the home, but police have been patrolling the area nonetheless over the past two days.

This isn't the first time area police have been asked to look out for Goodell's house.

"In the past, when there have been unpopular decisions, there have been emails and things," Moulton added. "I wouldn't say it rose to the level of threats, but certainly expressing unhappiness."

It's safe to say the likelihood of Goodell's home being violated is limited, but as for himself, he would be wise to stay free of the Boston area, and the vicinity of Robert Kraft, for some time to come.
