Rooney Rule: WTF?

I think the minority coaches in the NFL should be allowed to vote on it. I would wager that they would have it removed. It is not fair to minorities, it is easy to get around, and I seriously don't think we are in the kind of place where Rooney rules and affirmative action are necessary. Rules like this create racial divides. Some of these coaches are forced to turn down interviews because they know that they are not serious candidates. This hurts their chances in a few years when the job opens again.

The Rooney rule is not fair to minority coaches and needs to be removed. Furthermore, it is not necessary any longer (JR is a deep south country boy--his first two choices were minorities). Winning and losing are the only colors in the NFL--and green.

Minority coaches didn't cause the NFL to institute it. It was activists outside the league who threatened lawsuits because they felt that there weren't enough minority head coaches that prompted the league to take action. And those activists are still out there, hoping to cash in any way they can.

So the rule needs to stay.

Bingo......it's just so Jesse and Al can't get the easy payday, or another beer distributorship.

When those "activists" start to worry about why there isn't a single white starting DB in the league then I will consider them "activists". Until then, they are nothing more than a bunch of racists given cover by a complicit and gutless media and emboldened by the willingness of organizations like the NFL to cave into their ridiculous demands. It's pretty obvious to anyone with a brain they don't care about racial equity or they would be pizzed off about all the other racial inequities throughout professional sports.

      I’m gonna say it… I’m proud of Bryce.

      By ImfromClayton · Posted

      We don't have to tear down Dak to appreciate what Bryce did yesterday. Dak had 0 running game. If the cowboys were better, he'd be a legit MVP candidate if he keeps playing this way.  They did it with Ceedee last year, but they do a better job of anybody we play consistently of getting their best receiver off Jaycee.  Bryce was good too. If we just catch the ball that was intercepted, we probably win by 7+, and Bryce goes over 200 yards passing.  Biggest shift the last few weeks has been play calling. I thought Canales abandoned the run game way to early at times last year. This year he really seems to be sticking with it.  I still think Chuba is better at making 4 yards when there's nothing there, but Rico is better at making 30 yards when there's 6 there. I like the direction. Hopefully we can get Moton, Sanders and Coker back and really be dangerous. Our play action game is pretty deadly right now.  Unrelated: My favorite quality about Bryce right now is his ability to see the defensive hold and throw the ball there. He EXPOSES the officials when they don't call it. That one on Tetaroia yesterday late in the game was a bad miss on their part.

      This is a game the Panthers should win... just the sort of game they lose. The Panthers have a bad habit that goes back years of playing down to the competition's level only to mess around and lose the game. The Jets game should be taken very seriously! But I want to enjoy the fact that they beat the Cowboys for at least another day or so!
