I'm not assuming anything, you've frequently made excuses for black people not being treated fairly here and in other forums. This is a pattern with you. 

This is based on the assumption that they are being treated unfairly in the instances that we’ve had these discussions. What makes you think Bienemy is being treated unfairly?

@ImaginaryKev lets say you are in charge and need to hire 10 people. Who are you hiring? Be 100% honest. 

I see you're trying to conduct a thought experiment here but if players and coaches all agree that black coaches aren't getting a fair shot, why you in such a rush to disagree and cape for owners who might only be comfortable with other white folks in leadership positions? This might be unconscious and not outwardly malicious at all, I've admitted that much. But it's weird how you're in such a hurry to justify a qualified black coach being passed over repeatedly while white coaches with less experience and shorter resumes continue to get coaching gigs and more interviews. You don't have to change the subject or bring up the lack of white DBs if you disagree, I promise that's got nothing to do with this

"If you had to hire 10 people who would you hire?"

Not hard to see where this is going and how its gonna be twisted into an attack on race quotas and how we need to hire the best person for the job etc (as if diverse work forces can't do a good job). I mean, if black coaches weren't good in leadership roles there wouldn't be so many black coordinators in the Super Bowl this year. And ask any of them, it isn't about ability, it's about opportunities. Go ahead, ask black coaches what they think. But nope, let's invoke Jason Sehorn to demonstrate the natural inequalities of the NFL I guess, and how it's totally a merit based system (even though NFL players and black coaches disagree with you, too).

They can play all the positions and be great coordinators but can't be given the big jobs as HC and in the front office? Lol, yeah totally fair, merit based system

I mean the last white CB I think was Jason Sehorn(1990s), wheres are the out-rage about that? What would be the reaction if the NFL started forcing teams to play more whites/non-blacks at CB? Like draft picks, WR has to play with a weight vest, allow defenses one more player, all 50/50 calls go in favor etc. Plus no one should tell you how/who to hire if you spent 3 billion on a business. That goes the same if you build a small business form nothing too. Equal part is gone too, since the other method is to lower standards to make the "unfair" testing right. 

We get it, you think affirmative action is unfair. So easy to spot the bitter.

I followed it to its natural conclusion, which is you making excuses for why black people are treated unfairly in order to divorce race or bias from the equation. This isn't your first time doing this either.

The “natural conclusion” being your biased predetermination. Got it...

Cams arm is even trying to spin me pointing out inequality and advocating for more black opportunities as bitterness, which is just weird and defensive. Again, hit dogs always holler in conversations like this. 

Wow...now he’s calling people dogs. The nerve of this guy.

 

See how taking things out of context just makes you look ridiculous?

      89 on The Pivot

      Appreciate that, bro!  And I could definitely see that with Cam.  Even though he’s a little younger than me, he is also someone I admire and feel a kinship with for a lot of various reasons. Funny enough, a few years after that encounter with Steve, I went to Charlotte with one of my friends whose brothers owned a moving company at the time.  He dropped me off uptown and went to work the day with them where I would wait until he got done and then we were gonna go to the Bobcats game that night.  So I walk all through that area for hours.  After awhile, I walk back towards the arena and sit in a bench on the backside of the arena, where the practice court and player’s entrance was.  As I’m sitting there, I look up and almost think I’m seeing things - I squint and blink my eyes a couple times just to be sure, and yes…  it’s one of my childhood heroes, Muggsy Bogues walking across the crosswalk and into the arena.  I think he was coaching the Sting then, iirc.  Part of me wanted to just say, “Hey!  Muggsy!  Thank you for the inspiration and memories!  You were one of my favorite players as a kid!”  But, I just watched him walk by and into the arena and thought, “that was cool!”  I also so Miguel Cotto a couple years back while in Orlando and told my kids who it was but didn’t say anything to him.  I think somewhere in my subconscious, that encounter with Steve really made me feel like the gamble on finding out if they’re receptive to interaction just isn’t worth finding out.  At the end of the day, no matter if they’re receptive inspired us or were a hero, unless they initiate it, I likely never will…  because again, they’re humans just like us.  Not anymore unique or special, they just have a highly visible and very public job that we get to watch and in some ways participate.  So, I just appreciate it for what it is.

      Young up for Player of the Week

      I'm pleasantly surprised they gave it to Bryce Young over Josh Allen. Finally we're getting some respect. Now I'm just hoping the team follows this up accordingly and doesn't lay another egg.

      What weird blood red moon has cast its spell?  What’s next, dogs and cats sleeping together? Bonus question:  Did Canales open up his playbook or did Bryce find an extra high gear in his stick shift?
