All they care about is whether or not you are qualified for the position in the pros. That’s why pro sports has so many black players. If you are qualified, you get the job. It’s not about race, except to the race baiters.

To be fair, it was not always this way. But it is now.

‘It’s not about race, except to the race baiters.’

Pro sports is the last true meritocracy, at least at the player level. That may not be the case much longer, though.
