I keep them on because it's just sort of interesting to me, but also check the "can't be fired" box, so while the owner might admonish me for those I don't meet, I'll still get to keep running the team regardless.

I do try to meet the goals when they're reasonable. When it's too hard to meet them while trying to also win, I prioritize winning.

I also find that the owner stays happy overall as long as I win and make money. I'd go so far as to speculate that for those who want the risk of being fired (I'd guess for some people it makes the game more exciting) and thus don't want to check the "can't be fired" box, that the owners' goals being on make avoiding firing a little easier, because the owner will be satisfied regardless if you win and make money; but if you fail to do one of those, the goals give you another way to appease him so that he might forgive a couple of disappointing seasons (and usually many of them are a lot easier to achieve than winning).
