    The Giants Have NEVER Had a Black Coach Though and Were Literally THE LAST Team to Ever Start a Black QB...

    All I know is I’m joining Chris Bosh in boycotting the NFL. From this moment on no purchasing of NFL paraphernalia, no attending their games, no watching their games on tv. Hell, I’m not even going to listen to any NFL podcasts.

    Mind you I was already not doing any of that but now I’m going to not do any of it with a purpose.

    The Problem Is, 31 of the 32 NFL Owners are Rich, Powerful WHITE Men Who "Conveniently" Have an "Idea" of a Head Coach That Looks Like THEM, Despite the Fact the League is 70% BLACK...

    The Rooney Rule was Implemented in 2003, if REED's Not Mistaken, Yet There's Now FEWER Black Coaches Than When the Rule was 1st Put Into Action...

    The Rule Itself is Nearly 20 Years Old, Yet Only 17 MINORITY Head Coaches Have Been Hired In That Span...Hell, the League Even INCENTIVIZED Hiring Black Coaches/GM's w/Extra Draft Picks and it Still HASN'T Helped...It's a BIGGER Issue Than Merely "Having an Idea" of WHO They Want to Hire...More Like Them Having an Idea of Who They WON'T Hire...

    The EASY Answer is Minority OWNERSHIP of a Team, But Even That's Problematic...Any Potential Owner Has to Be Approved by MAJORITY Vote of the Other 32 Owners...Back When Kaepernick was Anthem Protesting, PDiddy Attempted to Buy the Carolina Panthers and was IMMEDIATELY Shot Down by NFL Owners...

    Diddy's MONEY Wasn't Even Good Enough...

    He was never getting that job. Ever. The rule mandating interviews is stupid. It means nothing. You get interviewed, then overlooked. It is a rule that promotes high farce, which is what we're seeing now.

    By your own admission, you've got fewer black coaches now than before.

    Mandates DON'T WORK.

    Mandates Don't Work Because RACIST, ENTITLED, WHITE PRICKS Don't Want Them to Work...

    The NY Giants Could've EASILY Given Brian Flores the Benefit of the Doubt and OBJECTIVELY Interviewed Him, But it was THEIR Choice Not To...

    Yet YOUR Bitchass BLAMES & MOCKS Flores for Taking a Stand???...

    Go Fuck Yourself...

    Mandates don't work because mandates don't work. The Rooney rule is hopeless. It is a thing writ in water..... It obliges a hearing, an interview, and nothing more.

    I happen to agree with you, there should be no way anybody can veto the purchase of a club. I cannot agree with the veto of Sean Combs attempt to buy a franchise.

    Let Diddy buy a club, then let the chips fall where they will thereafter. Firings, rancour, success, failure, all will follow.

    The decision to rule Flores out beforehand was perfectly acceptable. It happens ALL THE TIME. Only 1 guy gets the job. Only 4 or 5 get called to interview.

    What's unacceptable is telling others that he'd been ruled out before the interview. Its a dumb process but it's even dumber to not play along until its abolished.

    Its the mandate that makes no sense. You can't mandate an interview and expect anything other than trouble, futility and embitterment inevitably

    The Rooney Rule was Born Out of NECESSITY; 70% of NFL Players are BLACK, But the Numbers on the Leadership Side of the Coin are Staggeringly, Embarrassingly 1-Sided in the Opposite Direction...Coaches, GM's, Ownership, That's the NEXT Level...

    The Mandate is About REPRESENTATION and in the Case of the NFL, it's Not Working BECAUSE OLD SCHOOL, RICH, WHITE OWNERS DON'T WANT IT TO WORK, PERIOD!!!...History Has REPEATEDLY Shown Rich, Powerful White Men are RELUCTANT To Share Said Power and the NFL is a Glaring Example of Such...

    32 Teams, 1 Minority Owner, of Pakastani Descent, No Less...With 0 Pakastani's in the League, Shahid Khan was NO THREAT to the Status Quo, So the Owners Readily Approved His Ownership Request...Rich, Powerful BLACK Guy Though??? Fuck Off!!!...

    Beyond the Rooney Rule Mandate, the NFL Even INCENTIVIZED the Hiring of Blacks and Other Minorities Into Positions of Leadership via Extra Draft Picks, but the Good Ol' Boy Power Structure STILL Isn't Enticed...

    You're Fixated on the MANDATE Itself Without Acknowledging WHY it was Implemented in the 1st Fucking Place...The NFL Is Rife with INEQUITY and That Needs to Be Changed, Forthwith...

    The mandate doesn't achieve anything. It obliges people to consider a candidate of a certain ethnic background. It goes no further. You can easily get around it by not even interviewing the best non-White candidate and then, reasonably, declining to give the job to the ones you did.

    Its futile.

    What SHOULD happen is that the veto is outlawed. Theres no possible justification for it.

    Then you'll get black ownership, and, with it, black successes and black failure and people will see that sometimes you can get fired and fucked over by "ones own" too. It won't be all milk and honey so what the current owners are trying to achieve with their veto is beyond me.

    Over here thee is a "fit and proper" owners test. It's horseshit. We've had more unfit and improper owners than I can shake a stock at, ranging from bona fide Dictators to just corrupt bums like Tom Hicks and his pal Gillette. Its horseshit.

    So scrap the veto, let Diddy or Shaq or whatever buy a team and let's get on with it.

    The NFL has a rare habit of shooting itself in the ass every day of the week. This whole mess is just another example.

    Its not fair, it's not free market, it's not productive.

    Again, the Mandate Itself ISN'T the Problem...

    A Traffic Signal is a Mandate of Sorts; You'll Either Adhere to it or Not, Based on What YOU Want to Do, Inherently...

    NFL Owners DO NOT Want to Hire Black Coaches, By and Large...REED Would Say There's AMPLE Evidence Validating This, But it's Sooooo Glaring, AMMUNITION is a More Appropriate Word...

    agREED On NFL Ownership VETO'ing Being Outlawed, But You're Being DISINGENUOUS AF When You Say "What the Owners are Trying to Achieve w/Their Veto is BEYOND" You...You Know EXACTLY WHY They're Veto'ing Ownership:rolleyes:...

    You WORSHIP, Straight Up IDOLIZE an Old, Entitled, Rich White Man That DOESN'T Like Being Told What to Do...Your Nose is Half Way Up His Ass DAILY on the Political Forum, So Don't Act Surprised and Wonder Why Old, Entitled, Rich White NFL Owners are RELUCTANT to Adhere to a Mandate That Would LESSEN Their Current Level of Power/Control:Dont:...

    WHO the Fuck Are They Trying to Fool???...WHO the Fuck Are YOU Trying to Fool???...Shit is TRANSPARENT!!!...

    You KNOW What the Fuck it Is, Just Like Them...But Just Like Them, You WON'T Say It...

    That's fucked up. I wonder why the NFL isn't focusing on the part about him being offered money to lose games and then being fired after a winning season.

    That seems like it's a thousand times worse than anything that happened in these interviews.

    There's PLENTY of Drunk Elway Stories, but the FACT Is, Vance Joseph was their Coach Fairly Recently...

    Elway May Very Well Have Been FUCKED UP and Granted Brian Flores a TOKEN Interview, Knowing He was Hiring Vic Fangio All Along, But it'll Be Next to Impossible to PROVE Racial Bias in that Particular Instance...

    Ultimately, REED Expects the League to SETTLE w/Flores and BLACKBALL Him for the Rest of His Life, ala, Kaepernick...

    Because Ultimately, the NFL ='s Roger Goodell, Who's Rewarded HANDSOMELY to Always Keep the Best Interests of OWNERS Above the So-Called "Shield" and/or League...

    100% of the Time, Goodell Will Consider and Protect OWNERS 1st, Before Pondering What's FAIR or JUST...IS What it IS...

    Daniel Snyder Should've Lost His Franchise YEARS Ago...Why were Jon Gruden's Inappropriate Emails Released, Yet NONE of the Other 650k Emails That were Reviewed???...Why SETTLE w/Kaepernick if You WEREN'T Really Conspiring Against Him???...Was Robert Kraft Ever PUNISHED By the League for His Bath House Exploits???

    Not to Mention Virtually IGNORING, SHUNNING the Rooney Rule...

    In a Sense, NFL Owners are the Mob and Goodell is the Crooked Judge Put in Place to "Police" Them...
