Does anyone else find this 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.

I can agree with your sentiments.

Honestly I would not care if my team had a black qb, black head coach, and an all black cheerleading squad....who gives a fruk.....if we make it to the playoffs every so often who cares....just win baby!!!!

Sure.

There are also some white people that won't be satisfied till there are none.

There's not a lot of either, however, so what the hell's your point?

[Lumps]

The NFL needs more white coaches and players.

Most of what Snyder does is offensive

It's not like they instituted hiring quotas. They've simply required interviews.

Teams are still free to hire whomever they think is best for the job. Sometimes that's a minority candidate. Sometimes not.

This year it was extended to management level hires as well (GM, etc) with the same rules. A good move, in my opinion.

The rule has worked as it was intended, to provide equal opportunity. I really don't see a problem.

if a black panther has a baby with a white tiger... will it make a panger or a tither

The whole point is to grease the wheels to make the ACCESS fair for minorities that were not getting a fair shake at coaching and upper mgt jobs.

I'm not the biggest fan of the cult of diversity, but in this case, it's a strategic way to increase the chances. I have no problem with that.

If a team is dumb enough to hire a coach ONLY because he is black, they will suffer. Same for the team that hires only because he is white.

And it is just an interview.

Sure there is some patronizing that occurs, here, let's interview when we already have someone in mind. So in some cases it's window dressing.

But, there is still that shot that in the middle of the patronizing, that guy wows those doing the hiring and the rest is history.
