Does anyone else find this offensive?

[Sheldon Wolowizard]

Last night during the Dallas/Skins game the announcers were talking about the NFL rule that a team must interview a minority before hiring a new HC. Snyder interviewed one of his coordinaters and asked Goddell if that counted. Does anyone else find this offensive?

I find it offensive because, imo, it seems like minorities that are being interviewed can be under the impression that they are there only because of the color of their skin and not their abilities.

The NFL is a billion dollar business. Doesn't it make sense for owners to hire the best coach regardless of the color of their skin. I wanted Singletary for Carolina. I thought he was the best coach for us because of his intensity and history of winning as a player. He knows how to win and won't settle for less.

Am I just wierd or something because I think this is just flat out insulting?

So what if he has an eye on another guy what dose it matter that guy is gonna get the Pos. I mean there are plenty of good black coaches in the NFL. If the Redskins dont want them hell thats there loss. Why dose everything have to be put under a microscope these days.

Really, threads about race never go over well anywhere. Just let the NFL do what they think is best, and hopefully we get more and more black coaches in professional sports.

Now, that's offensive.

I honestly feel some black people won't be satisfied until every player, coach, manager, owner, ball boy, referee, cheerleader, assistant, etc is black.
