I’ll give a crap when there are at least 15 teams that are minimum half white. When whites are allowed to play cornerback, running back and wide out without apprenticing for 4 years. Til then, screw off.

No, it's reality.

Reality is racist.

Performance is measured objectively; wins and losses. No affirmative action cheating is possible. The NFL has gotten so politically correct, no one cares what happens. Maybe they’ll have to quit keeping score. LOL!!

there is a difference in average IQ for whites and blacks

This is true, and has been widely known to be true for a very long time.

Refusing to acknowledge the problem does not make it go away.

There are only 32 of those jobs in the world - the same number as starting quarterbacks. It’s not too much to ask that those who hold them be successful or risk replacement. Bortles will soon be gone, as well as Flacco, and maybe Manning. Tenure is not guaranteed without results.

Affirmative action does not work. Just look at Obama’s record.

Ummm. Facts may hurt your feelings, but despite your teRs they remain facts.

There is a HUGE disparity in IQ among races, as well as both volume and complexity in the brain.

Meta-analysis of associations between human brain volume and intelligence differences.

and which race is the minority in the player’s ranks?

Let's sue, or complain a lot.

Jews would have great "standing" to sue the NFL, and they have the best lawyers.

Some of these coaches were pure Affirmative Action hires.

Vance Joseph, the now fired head coach at Denver, had only one year of experience as a defensive coordinator, at Miami, when John Elway hired him.

At Miami, Joseph was mediocre at best.

He started the year with four Pro Bowl defensive players.

He finished the year with a bottom ten ranking in almost every important defensive statistic.

Re: “What you said is pure racism.”

It may be racist, but it is also factual.

Black Americans have an average IQ of 85.

White Americans used to be IQ 101.

That’s down to IQ 99 now - possibly because the Census Bureau and various other federal agencies allow Hispanics, North Africans, and Middle East immigrants to self-identify as “white.”
