Zimmer not in the list, yet.? The Vikes need to at least unload the GM, Spielman. He’s been drafting OL players for years and this is what fans get?

Will the usual suspects in the sports media cry racism? Will LeBron say this is more evidence NFL owners are like slave owners?

That’s why the Cleveland Browns floated Condoleeza Rice’s name out there as a potential candidate for their head coaching job. She’ll never take the job, but at least they considered her. LOL.

I saw this coming once the “democrats” took control of the House again.

Marvin Lewis should have been fired five years ago and would have been if he was white.

Those Denver results all seem GM related to me. I know a sharp guy in an auto deal with Elway and he tells me he’s smart as whip, as on the ball as anyone he knows. But as Denver GM? He’s been pretty iffy, really.

How about calling it a "FINE Day" (Fire Incompetent Negro Employees Day)?

When you gotta go to a dubious stat like “since 2011” you’ve lost. You had Manning fall into your laps. You beat the Pats the time you had the game at home like Manning did that one time in Indy. That’s what you got. And a ton of endorsement cash for Von Miller. If that car ain’t up on blocks this morning you guys are delusional, and I’m glad.

The Game of Musical Coaches begins!

Right! Now we have a few black head coaches joining the white guys that get endlessly recycled. It's getting as bad as MLB.

Some college coaches can’t transition into good coaching in the NFL.

Now former Bengals coach Marvin Lewis: “It’s been a lot. This season’s been a lot.

How big was the lot?

Normal city/town lot is about 80x120.

Ekway inherited a good team. Last 3 years are the result of his actions and leadership

That's not "a dubious stat" - 2011 is when Elway became GM for the Broncos. Any other year would be selective cherry-picking - in your words, "dubious".

You had Manning fall into your laps.

Well, no - Manning didn't fall into anything. Elway signed Manning, in the face of recruitment by several other teams. Signing a Hall-of-Fame QB with miles left on the odometer over the competition is one of the most impactful and significant things a GM can do, and that's entirely to Elway's credit.

There's no "you" or "your" about this for me - I'm not a Broncos fan. But Denver would be remarkably stupid to let him go - guys with that kind of winning record aren't available to front-offices every day.

Actually, in California they are very blatant about their “diversity.” They just don’t care what you do. But I can promise you, with the test scores I got, SCE was not pleased they lost me. And I ended up with a long career with the military and later the feds. Retirement is good also. But I did want to impress that this “quota thing” is not new. It’s been around for many decades and actually started a few hundred year ago with the Mongols in the 1200’s. All has to do with pressure. California just perfected their “style” of getting even after 200 years for being a particular color and punishing people that have been dead for just as long.
