NFL Tells Teams to Hire Minority or Female Offensive Assistant Coaches for 2022 Season
The Epoch Times ^ | March 29, 2022 | Metabolism Roberts

Posted on 03/29/2022 3:56:48 PM PDT by DennisR

The NFL will require every team to hire a minority or female offensive assistant coach for the 2022 season in an effort to ensure more opportunities for diverse candidates.

The policy was adopted by NFL owners during their annual meeting on March 28 and requires all 32 NFL teams to hire an offensive assistant coach who is “a female or a member of an ethnic or racial minority,” regardless of whether or not the team already has a coach who satisfies those requirements among their staff.

It is unclear exactly when the policy goes into effect.

Do NFL teams now need to retain biologists to consult on hiring?

“I assume this means if you have an opening.

Or do you have to fire some white guys to make room”?

Firing qualified white guys is coming.

All it will take is one coach suing using the EEOC rules which guarantee that no racial quotas are allowed in hiring. I should say, one well heeled coach. Not to sound bigoted, but women and men mix really well at one thing, and it is not business or sports. Well, hookers and pimps is a business I suppose. Plus, female sports leagues with female coaches, doctors and staff is fine. Anything else leads to inefficiency, sexual harrassment, and a less business-like atmosphere.

Already, the NFL is much less attractive. The rules they made, are frankly are turning the game into powder puff football. It is the NBA with pads on.

Really, I thought it was the Babylon Bee...

Good one!

Actually Minnesota outfoxed them all by hiring a black GM. That’s trumps any quota you can toss out there.....

I'd guess they do.

So who defines what a female is?

Good question. Maybe each team will be required to hire a certified biologist too.

I identify as a differently-abeled black Spanish-surnamed Native American lesbian woman trapped in the body of a cisgendered, heteronormative white male, of age and of size.

Think of all the diversity boxes they could check off if they hired me.

I'm available, if the price is right.

If you are Christian, you are automatically disqualified regardless of the obviously enormous breadth of your intersectionality and diversity. Nice try, though.

Next?
