I have a close friend that was an NFL head coach and career NFL guy (player & coach) to this day. He is among the group of Black men to reach that level in the league.
We discussed potential racism in the NFL hierarchy in detail a few years prior to him becoming a head coach. He is what I would consider "color blind" as I never witnessed any characteristics or practices that reflected the color of a persons skin influencing him.
The cliff's:
- Some old school owners or GM's were certainly never going to hire any Black man at the HC or executive level. Those types of individuals are outliers at this point of the game.
-Some current leaders are "shy" or slow to high level minority hiring, IOW a minority candidate would have to be the perfect candidate to get a realistic look.
-Majority of NFL leadership wants to win, period.. the color of your skin is not a factor.
-Majority of entry level/position coaching candidates are Caucasian.. the funnel lends itself to the known results.
-Minority NFL position coaches are inadequately prepared nor modify to meet the administrative skills sets required to advance up the ladder and potentially gain head coaching opportunities.
-There will be a higher balance of minorities in leadership positions in the NFL over time and for the right reasons.

My miserable team just made a new hire.
For what it's worth, I am pulling for the Houston Texans. I would love to see them win a few playoff games.

Yes the redistribution attempts are well underway via green energy/climate change hoax, tax increases, student loan forgiveness, increased social $ programs, lockdowns, DOJ targeting conservatives, liberal DA’s letting criminals slide, et
Exactly. AND, now that this monstrous entity has started to roll down this path, it cannot stop itself. It must continue to evolve into more Leftism, more Totalitarianism, more persecution and abuse of the Unfavored Political Classes.
