I don't think that any team should be forced to interview anyone. I wouldn't think it was fair if the rules were reversed and all teams had to interview a white coach.

Rooney Rule - (short version) every team that has a head coaching position open in the NFL must interview a minority candidate.

I think it's only fair that historically black colleges interview at least one white candidate.

Why are there disproportionately fewer white players? Rooney Rule for white players IMO.

It seems more racist to bring a colored guy in for a sit down to shoot the shite knowing he doesn't have a chance than not bringing him in and naming the coach that gets the job.

For the most privilege people on the planet, white Americans sho' do get their jimmies rustled over stupid things.


OMG!!! I can't believe they have to do token interviews. A white guy could have not gotten that job instead of that token black guy not getting it!!!


Mad they taken your jobs, made they not taken your jobs. smdh

Big or small companies hire for production now, period. Race has zero to do with it anymore.

Not mad at all dude. Why should there be a special rule for it? Why make special sanctions for anyone. People want equality right? How is this equal?

Is English your second language? Don't think we have to worry about you taking anybody's job.

All forms of affirmative action should be obsolete at this point.
