When National Football League Commissioner Roger Goodell is under attack, as
he so often is these days, @forargument is there to fight back.
Wait, who?
The Twitter account, under the name “Jones smith,” has no followers, no
profile picture and has been virtually dormant for long periods since its
creation in 2014.
Roger Goodell Roger Goodell But @forargument has roared to life in the past
few months, rising up to vigorously defend Mr. Goodell against perceived
attacks on his handling of issues such as the national anthem protests by
players.
The most frequent sparring partner for @forargument is the nation’s sports
media. On Sept. 26, @ProFootballTalk, the Twitter account for the popular
NBC Sports blog, tweeted that it was “on the commissioner” to solve the
anthem issues.
In response, @forargument tweeted: “Please do better reporting. He is
already doing this. You are behind.”
Who is this valiant defender of a man who has so few defenders?
It is Roger Goodell’s wife, Jane Skinner Goodell, The Wall Street Journal
confirmed after an examination of the account.
“It was a REALLY silly thing to do and done out of frustration—and love.”
Mrs. Goodell said Thursday afternoon in a written statement. “As a former
media member, I’m always bothered when the coverage doesn’t provide a
complete and accurate picture of a story. I’m also a wife and a mom. I have
always passionately defended the hard-working guy I love—and I always will
. I just may not use Twitter to do so in the future!”
Within an hour after the Journal reached out to Mrs. Goodell and the NFL,
the account was made private. Later, it was taken down completely.
“Sounds like what she did is what every spouse in America would want to do,
” said NFL spokesman Brian McCarthy.

a former broadcaster, is punching back at a trying time for her husband.
The league is in a feud with President Donald Trump over some players’
decisions to kneel during the national anthem. It is embroiled in a legal
fight with one of its top stars, Dallas Cowboys running back Ezekiel Elliott
, over a disciplinary issue. The league’s strong TV ratings have sagged the
past two seasons.
And the commissioner has a lucrative contract extension—one that is
reportedly close, but not yet completed—hanging in the balance.
Amid this firestorm, Mrs. Goodell has covertly worked to change the
narrative. All of the 14 tweets from Mrs. Goodell since August are defenses
of Mr. Goodell in reply to various publications, including the Journal and
prominent sports commentators.
Throughout the guerrilla social-media campaign, however, nobody has been
paying attention. None of those tweets have elicited replies, likes or
retweets.
But @forargument is nothing if not consistent in its support for the
commissioner.
In reply to an ESPN article about the NFL’s response to Mr. Trump’s
attacks, @forargument admonished the two reporters involved: “Reads like
press release from players’ union. You can do better reporting. (D Smith
sounds like D Trump with the inaccurate firebombs).” DeMaurice Smith is the
head of the NFL Players Association.
“The premise of your article is silly,” @forargument tweeted on Oct. 3 at
the Journal after an article about disagreement among league owners over
handling of the anthem protests. “What board of directors in this country
would all agree on this issue?”
“Why is everyone so immature? (including you?),” @forargument scolded
Journal columnist Jason Gay in August.
Her most recent tweet was in response to a tweet from NBC News’s
presidential historian, who tweeted a picture of a newspaper article from
1970 titled “Agnew Continues Attack on GOP Senator Goodell,” who is the
commissioner’s father.
@forargument replied: “Goodell courageous & was right in the end.
Leadership is hard. Commish is doing same. Give him credit.”
Walt Disney Co.’s ESPN declined to comment. Comcast Corp.’s NBC and Dow
Jones & Co., publisher of the Journal, didn’t have an immediate comment.
It wasn’t her tweets that gave @forargument away. It was some of the people
she follows.
In total, @forargument follows 46 accounts. Between the national outlets,
prominent athletes and others (such as Taylor Swift, Ryan Seacrest and a
popular account @FemaleTexts), she follows four accounts connected to the
high school attended by the Goodells’ twin daughters.
Various other social-media breadcrumbs track to Goodell family members and
friends.
Mrs. Goodell, though quiet in recent years, has an impressive résumé. She
has experience in the media world and has spent plenty of time in the
spotlight.
She and Mr. Goodell married in 1997, and he became commissioner in 2006. She
co-hosted a daytime show on Fox News until 2010, when she stepped down
saying she wanted to spend more time with her family.
“To do justice to this new life, I’ve decided to take a break from this
business,” she said during her on-air farewell.
She doesn’t have a verified Twitter account of her own and has rarely
spoken publicly since leaving Fox News. In one exception, she spoke at the
NFL Women’s Summit in 2016 before Super Bowl 50, moderating a panel about
“Media, Entertainment and Sports as a Platform.”
That a prominent person has a secret Twitter account isn’t altogether
surprising. Many high-profile figures use the social-media site covertly to
monitor others—without tweeting themselves.
In the past year, enterprising sleuths have found the anonymous accounts
purportedly belonging to people such as former Federal Bureau of
Investigation Director James Comey and National Basketball Association
Commissioner Adam Silver. Neither of those accounts issued public tweets.
Mrs. Goodell, however, tweeted publicly and challenged big-name outlets in
defense of Mr. Goodell. In that way, it falls in line with a tradition of
spouses coming to the defense of their significant others.
In 2012, supermodel Gisele Bündchen stuck up for Patriots quarterback Tom
Brady saying, “my husband cannot f—ing throw the ball and catch the ball
at the same time.” More recently, country pop star Jessie James Decker
wrote on Instagram that her husband, Titans receiver Eric Decker, didn’t
know he was missing the national anthem when he was in the locker room with
the team two weeks ago and the whole team stayed off the field.
Mr. Goodell has his own Twitter account with more than 500,000 followers
under the handle @nflcommish. He last tweeted Saturday in Indianapolis, from
the Colts’ unveiling of Peyton Manning’s statue outside their stadium. @
forargument liked that tweet.
He follows 195 accounts. The NFL spokesman said Mr. Goodell didn’t know
about @forargument. | C*****E
