If you didn't vote for Donald Trump on Tuesday, and you need someone to blame for his win, just do what NFL fans do all the time and blame Roger Goodell.

Why him?

Well, if Trump had been able to buy the Buffalo Bills, then he wouldn't have run for president.

Back in 2014, the billionaire made it clear that he was interested in buying the team, and he was willing to spend up to $1 billion to do it. The deal never went down though because the Pegula family offered $1.4 billion for the team in a move that was finalized by the NFL in October 2014.

Eight months after Pegula's purchase, Trump announced that he was running for president. In a September 2015 interview with Sports Illustrated, Trump even admitted that he wouldn't have run if he had been allowed to buy the Bills.

"I'm glad [I didn't get the team], because if I bought the Buffalo Bills, I probably would not be [running for president], which is much more important," Trump said.

Trump basically said the same thing in February 2016 when he was asked what would've happened if he had been able to purchase the team.

"If I bought that team, I wouldn't be doing what I'm doing," Trump said.

Goodell was actually asked about these comments during an interview on Thursday at the New York Times' DealBook conference.

"I guess I have to take a lot of responsibility [for Trump's presidency], I guess. I had not heard that," Goodell said with a smile.

The commissioner then pointed out that Trump's final offer to buy the team never made it to the league because the previous Bills' owners chose to move forward with the offer from the Pegulas.

"I knew he was interested in the Bills, but that was done by the previous ownership of the Bills and it never got to our table," Goodell said.

So if you voted for Hillary Clinton, that means blame the Bills. If you voted for Trump, that means the Bills are your new favorite team.

Anyway, Goodell was also asked about a recent incident in Massachusetts where Trump nodded yes when someone asked him if he would fire Goodell if he were to get elected president.

"You did mention he said that in Massachusetts, correct? There you go," Goodell said, alluding to the fact that he's not that popular in Massachusetts due to that whole Deflategate thing.

The good news for Goodell is that the president doesn't have the power to fire the commissioner of the NFL.

Finally, there was one other Trump-related topic that came up during Goodell's interview. The commissioner was asked if Trump's vulgar comments about women have made his job harder.

"Listen, it makes my job harder at home, too. I have twin daughters and a wife and so I have to explain that to them," Goodell said. "So yes, on that front. Does it make it harder publicly? Listen, I think our country has to have more respect for one another and we have to unite. I saw some very positive signs of that [Wednesday] with our current president, Hillary Clinton's comments publicly and others coming together and saying, 'We have to get together, we have to unite, we have to address some of the issues and work together.' President-elect Trump is our president, so let's get behind him."

It was an interesting answer from Goodell, who's been heavily criticized over the past few years for the way he has handled domestic violence issues involving players like Ray Rice and Josh Brown.
