I agree there is blatant racism in the NFL.
Whites make up 70% of the population of the country (conservatively) yet Blacks with only 13% of the population are grossly over represented to the tune of 70% of all NFL players.
How bad is the racism? Of 64 starting Cornerbacks in the league there is not one single White guy! Not one! Their percentage of the population suggests there should be at least 44 starting White Cornerbacks in the league. Who cares if they can’t cover anybody? The solution in that case is to demand that there be far more White Wide Receivers so that they can cover somebody.
Equality of outcome is what matters, not equality of opportunity. Any disparity in outcome is proof of racism. What we have in the case of the NFL is obvious and massive racism. Blacks are about 5 and a half times over represented as a percent of their population. We need an NFL that is inclusive and looks like America.
Just wait til I get started on the NBA.

Excellent observations, FLT-bird!

As bad as the racism is, the sexism is even worse. There are no women players in the NFL. There have never been any women in the NFL. There haven’t been any women drafted in the NFL. And none have been head coaches, either.
