It’s not racist. It’s an inconvenient truth.

I’m sure the ONLY reason they were fired was because they were black.

There are some really ignorant Whites, and some brilliant Blacks. Intelligence does not equal coaching skills and leadership ability. I suspect some of these coaches got where they were due to affirmative action but even the hyper politically-correct NFL cannot ignore the bottom line of W’s and L’s.

Where I believe Black coaches fail is their acceptance of typical “Urban” attitudes. Instead of demanding nothing less than an exemplary work ethic, these coaches empathize with their players. They are reluctant, or unable to lead their teams because they are afraid they will be acting “White”. There are some truly bad White coaches as well, so the lack of leadership skills isn’t exclusively a Black thing.
