If anything I hope the Giants get destroyed for this because I hate that dirty franchise. Couldn’t happen to a better owner. Mara is a true scumbag. Quick to blow the whistle on other franchises. He’s a rat.

In certain critical ways, the NFL is racially segregated and is managed much like a plantation,'' the lawsuit said. "Its 32 owners -- none of whom are Black -- profit substantially from the labor of NFL players, 70% of whom are Black. The owners watch the games from atop NFL stadiums in their luxury boxes, while their majority-Black workforce put their bodies on the line every Sunday, taking vicious hits and suffering debilitating injuries to their bodies and their brains while the NFL and its owners reap billions of dollars."


I’m sure the multi multi million dollar contracts to play a game have nothing to do with it.
This is the reason I’m DONE with NFL.

[Balekji] Brian Daboll was interviewed on January 21. Leslie Frazier was the first Black head coach candidate they interviewed on January 22. Current DC Patrick Graham was also interviewed on January 26. So Flores wasn't needed to satisfy Rooney Rule.

Why would Bill know how Daboll got the job before any media members is my question?


Bill is super super close with a lot of the old guard at the giants, and is obviously connected with Daboll and Flores, and likely has other connections of holdovers in the building from the Joe Judge era that he is also connected with.

He probably knows as much about the giants as anyone possibly could without actually working in that front office.

Flores is a good coach. This is fricked up and needed to be exposed. The shitty part about this is that he would have been given more chances in the NFL had he stayed quiet.

He could definitely get a D1 college gig and make a few million a year tho.

Belicheck kind of panicked from embarrassment when he realized he fricked it up, if he had thought it through he would’ve just been like “oh yeah I know this is Brian Flores, that’s just what I’ve heard” and then been wrong about it and avoided this whole thing

Flores also said the Dolphins told him he would get $100K for every loss he got in 2019 and they were mad when he started winning

Wait, like additional money under the table?

I mean if you already believe teams are giving you sham interviews with apparent evidence, what are you really sacrificing there



What did expect when they passed the Rooney rule?

This guy got a chance to be an NFL head coach, a job that thousands of white men dream about every day. He spent three years with about .500 winning percentage and got fired.

Jon Gruden got fired from some emails from years ago.

The NFL fires coaches. Race doesn't enter into the equation.

Apparently, Flores is also alleging that Dolphins owner Stephen Ross offered him a bonus of $100,000 for each loss in 2019, and was pissed when the team kept winning.

Brian Flores is an idiot, and I'm tired of the racism excuse, it's a crutch to get over and it's been played out. His suit claims that the NFL, specifically the owners profits off the back of labor from primarily black athletes. That these athletes suffer brain injuries all the time and other issues as well. Well, no one is forcing them to play the game, a game that they profit very well from themselves.

The NFL is making huge money off of the fans with ticket sales and merchandise sales through the roof. They also get huge tv contracts as well as others financial avenues that the black athletes or players profit from themselves.

If ANYBODY has a gripe in this, it's Leslie Frazier. Brian Flores just went .500 in three years in Miami, two of which featured a Tom Brady-less Patriots team.

Bill Belichick and the Giants will be in some deep shite if all this is true. Bill probably gets a game suspension and the Giants probably lose a couple of draft picks. If Sean Payton texted that, he’d get a lifetime suspension. Saints would lose 10 picks or something.



There's a halfway decent shot Bill thought it was fricked up and did this on purpose.

I doubt it given his connections with the NYGs and Daboll.

Y'all still think Tua was the problem in Miami?

I'm Black and I love being Black. But, Flores was an arse and that's why he got canned. Flores didn't even get along with the Dolphins' GM who is also Black. Bye Flores.
