When it does flip, let’s see how much they push diversity of hiring white guys.

I’m all for good coaches, whatever color. Wish the hacks and retreads would wash out instead of constantly recycling and being rehabed by Saban.

I think players should represent the current demographic population in USA. So if Merica is 13% black, we should see 13% black in NFL and NBA to make it more diverse per the census.

And what does that accomplish?

Other than self-congratulatory, virtue-signaling corporate back-patting? Nothing.

On the field it’s +90% black , that 56% figure is totally cooked. Frick the nfl and their fake national anthem

I’m appalled by the lack of midget representation.

It's been beyond time for the current clown to be replaced by a new commissioner.

It’s about the entire League being diverse in all aspects of the league, not just players being black or minority


The players on the field aren’t diverse at all, unless you just mean “black people are over represented”.

Asians, Hispanics, middle eastern, women, and the disabled are horrifically under represented.

Why aren’t they serious about diversity in the most public aspect of the organization?

This is the correct answer……which means the Rooney rule should be scrapped.

Yeah, I just love how all of these woke blowhards love to toss around these "we need more diversity" "still work to do" comments around, but never do they volunteer to give up their power/job to a minority. It's always let's screw a deserving person by making. a DEI hire, but not in my spot.

what to do about too many Tongans?

Where are the Native Americans?

How will the push to international venues work out? Brazilians, Brits and Europeans not to mention Mexicans are all going to need their slices.
