Commissioner Roger Goodell is alive and well, contrary to a Twitter hoax that the league is investigating, the Associated Press reported.
Tuesday afternoon, a post went up on the league's official account that read ``We regret to inform our fans that our Commissioner, Roger Goodell, has passed away. He was 57,'' followed by a hashtag ``RIP.''That tweet was son deleted, as were follow-up tweets that said, `Oi, I said Roger Goodell has died. Don't delete that tweet.''As other Twitter users sniffed out the hack, a tweet appeared that said, ``OK, OK, you amateur detective. Good job.''NFL spokesman Brian McCarthy confirmed the NFL account had been hacked and the league is looking in to what happened.
