***NFL TO VOTE*** Offering Teams Draft Compensation For Hiring Minority HCs & GMs

[Briggs is GOAT]

Same thing with race and IQ. IQ has some biological basis but race does not, so you can't link the two together.

What is so hard to understand about this?

I didn't even have to read all of Botfly's posts to get it, ?

And if you do, you get to go to California

This I'm too dull to understand

Fairly certain botflys post I quoted was about poor players having no other outlet for success so they play sports.

Yea...thats not how good athletes work, for the most part. It's genetic. Otherwise you'd have twinks like grimson playing football.

Calling someone different because of their phenotype is not being racist.

@Grimson did play football, idiot.

It's where @Omeletpants said he was when he was banned for posting racist chit.

I’m fairly certain that this thread will still be going tomorrow

This thread went exactly as expected.

Tons of CCS racists showing their ass and msadows being a complete buffoon as usual.

Yep, no surprise that the usual Trumpisky supporters have a problem with this proposed rule.

 

[MDB111™]

msadows is truly a imbecile. Lying about degrees and careers.

Spreading scientific nonsense about.

Who the fuck chose my state? We are as blue as they come. Send their ass to Georgia or Alabama.

It's racism on an individual level (still bad of course) but not systemic racism. Now if that black person was in a position of power and created a law that discriminated against Spanish people that would be systemic racism.

Without individual racism, systematic racism wouldn't exist. I am not sure why you need to feel the need to differentiate in this context.

I was just explaining that there's individual and systemic racism, the key point being that systemic racism is more damaging than individual racism.

If the goal is to hire more people of color this may work.

If the goal is to: "live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character" then I think it's a huge swing and a miss.

To me this is the NFL saying "hey, we think coaches of color are less valuable so we're going to give you an incentive to hire them." Pretty shitty IMO. But I'm open to any thoughts otherwise because I do think the level of minority hiring in the NFL is BS.

Yea I think both can be true:

The level of hiring for minority coaches is a fucking joke, and this rule also sends the wrong message.

Either way, I am actually not going to be really vocally against it because at the end of the day, a draft pick means jack shit. Teams that for whatever subconscious or conscious bias will not hire a minority coach definitely will not do it for draft compensation. It’s not like they will get a top 5 pick. At best it’ll be some shit like end of the first round which means nothing in terms of turning around a shit team (the ones hiring new coaches).

This won’t do much. I’m not sure what will.

Fuck I just quoted some shit on the first or second page without realizing this is a 20 page thread.

After re-reading the various proposals about expanding the Rooney rule and this incentive proposal, my prediction is that the incentive proposal will not get passed by the NFL owners. I think it is too much of a change for them to buy into it on the first consideration of something like that.

Instead, my guess is that they expand the Rooney rule to cover coordinator positions and maybe to require 2 minority candidate interviews instead of the current single candidate requirement.

It will also be interesting to see if they make it so that teams cannot block position coaches from interviewing / leaving for coordinator positions. IMO, that rule should also been changed a long time ago. I have always thought it a bit wrong to deny people a chance at a promotion especially when there are so few opportunities available.

Imagine being too stupid to understand how hiring someone solely on skin color is racist. Congrats, you are officially Special person.

Yes, because they are going to pluck random people of color off the streets and give them GM and head coaching jobs in the NFL.

Charles Tillman for Bears President.

You make a bad pick he slaps that Shit out your hand.

Just do what the bulls did to cater to dumb fucks. Hire a puppet.

The Bulls did the opposite. They fired their puppets and put in 2 guys who have shown to be halfway competent at their jobs.
