Nothing like a flagrant racist rule....

Seems to me, the need for a rule like this proves that perhaps the racists are onto something...

NOTHING, NOTHING in life is more PERFORMANCE based that SPORTS.. win or be gone... I don’t think any pro team in todays age is sitting by going, nope, not going to hire the most qualified guy for us just because of his race.... NONE...

NFL... the National Felon League, figures out yet another way to be stupid.

“Under the proposal, a team could improve its third-round draft position by up to 16 places.”

What if 16 teams hire black coaches? How do all 16 teams move up 16 places? Do 16 teams all get the No. 54 pick? How does that work? Does the No. 54 pick play for all 16 teams? What about teams that already had a black coach? Do those teams get bumped down to pick No. 75 in the fourth round? It sounds racist.

They must be talking about white people. White people are a minority in the NFL, and NBA.
