What are you even arguing? I know you have me on ignore, because you're bitchmade, so can someone else like @Bearly ask?Link the above Albert Breer quote
Funny how these conversations don't have to take place about the NBA
The Bears have been around over 100 yrs. Now....talk about so called "DIVERSITY EFFORTS " in hiring for decision making roles during that time period.
No good deed goes unpunished with you. Thanks for confirming this was always about race for you and never about those 'qualifications'.Link the above Albert Breer quote

With that 100 year comment, I can only imagine that he wants the Bear to pay reparations or something like that. That they've obviously been doing what they can for at least a quarter century is upsetting him.What are you even arguing?

Maybe Tanesha Wade can help you locate that quote if you're that incapable of finding it yourself.
You're insufferable.
The McCaskey's are at the forefront of getting this right and have just hired a black GM after having been one of the 1st 4 teams to ever hire a Black HC and kept him for 8 years.
"RIP Michael McCaskey!" Smith said on Twitter, in the first of three threaded tweets. "Five years before I became the head coach of the Bears, I attended an NFL Symposium to help minority assistants become head coaches. I was blessed to randomly sit at the same table as Michael.
"After I got back home, I wrote him a letter and thanked him for his words of wisdom. Five years later he offered me the Head job for the Bears! After I got to Chicago, Michael showed me the same letter that I wrote to him and recanted our conversations from the symposium.
"CAN'T THANK HIM ENOUGH FOR THE OPPORTUNITY! MY PRAYERS GO OUT TO THE MCCASKEY FAMILY FOR THEIR LOSS!"
Won't link that one for you either.
There's definitely a minority problem in corners of the NFL but when it comes to the McCaskeys, you can shove that indignation up your ass.
You post in a forum and don't want responses? What difference does it make if it's been a few weeks on a current topic? Context of those quotes I supplied are irrefutable. That you would need sources says more about you than me. Here's a clue. Copy and paste the quote in a google search.
WTF does the NBA have to do with the McCaskey's not hiring Pep because, you know, racists.
I was responding to the OP about Pep.You post in a forum and don't want responses? What difference does it make if it's been a few weeks on a current topic?

That is why affirmative action exists. Because the most qualified are often looked over because of the color of their skin. The science shows that white people will constantly pass over people of color because they don't relate culturally to them, and it is seen as a negative in the hiring process, even when the person is more qualified.I think the NFL does the entire process backwards. They make it an emphasis to force opportunities at the highest level (HC, GM, Coordinators), but those positions should be based upon qualification and experience/results.
When a person is hired at the lower levels it is more "potential" based, and that is where bias can be more prevalent. So the NFL should have a policy focusing on making sure that the opportunity to gain experience are an emphasis.
There is no perfect answer, I know I will get crap for this..but since when did race or sex become a qualification.... If you are considering hiring anyone based upon those factors, perhaps they are underqualified.
Until we get to a point where we hire a person based upon qualifications or potential and race is NOT a consideration, we will still have a race issue.
Absolutely a genuine issue but can you specifically point that finger at the Bear like a poster here is doing by implication?That is why affirmative action exists.

You make some good points. Unfortunately, in the NFL we seem to go through these uncomfortable discussions everyI think the NFL does the entire process backwards.
