an organization that is 90% black
Maybe it's 87% but you please tell me you get the point?Dolphins Front Office | Miami Dolphins - dolphins.com

90%?
I don't. Are you talking about the NFL as a whole? And counting players in your 87%? Then I think you're missing Flores' point.Maybe it's 87% but you please tell me you get the point?
I am referring to the entire NFL, which is predominantly black. Does Flores believe that since there is an inordinate number of black players there should also be an inordinate number of black coaches? Or is he just spewing sour grapes, which will deter his chances of ever being a head coach again?I don't. Are you talking about the NFL as a whole? And counting players in your 87%?

Correct, just because there are 90% black players does not mean there should be 90% black coaches. a coach should only be a coach if they know what the hell they are doing. BUT the NFL put themselves in a bind when they make a rule that says you have to interview at least 1 minority coach; because you are already implying there is a bias. Then when you interview one, just to make the rule not because you have any interest in the person, it does look discriminatory. it's a major can of worms being opened up and all because people want to open their mouths to be the first to congratulate someone before it's even public.I am referring to the entire NFL, which is predominantly black.

I don't want this thread to be about race.
Nah, you just wanted to take it that way.Your entire original post was about race.
That is probably best for everyone.You're equating the NFL to a black KKK and *I* made this thread about race? Got it.
This will be my last post in this thread, so feel free to go back to purposely misrepresenting the actual basis of his lawsuit.
