I notice that Goodell is not offering up his position to 'diversity'.

If 'diversity' was really the concern then we have a huge problem on the field of the NFL and at places like the NBA

Of course is not really about 'diversity' it is anti-white. The reality of all of this is it is anti-white. All of it.

Sure - make the coaching staffs reflect the race of the players - every head coach and most of his staff should be black.
Goodell should mandate that. Then see how much they love Goodell.

Why don’t they talk about how many Asian head coaches they don’t have?

Careful, the racial makeup of the players does not reflect that of the general population. Wouldn’t want to have to deal with that issue.

We will reevaluate and examine all policies, guidelines and initiatives relating to diversity, equity and inclusion, including as they relate to gender.

With the players? This could be fun.

It sure doesn’t make Flores look like a liar when there are nine head coach openings this season and the new hires have all been white as Wonder Bread.

Part of this is in regard to the “Rooney Rule”, a stupid idea that said all NFL teams must interview at least one minority candidate for every head coaching vacancy. While it made some temporary progress, this winter’s results show how easy it is to fulfill the rule but still not promote diversity.

The three teams left unfilled are the Dolphins (which fired Flores), Texans (which fired David Culley, an African-American whom they are trying to replace with a white guy who has never coached beyond high school - talk about bad optics) and the Saints.

Henceforth all team will field a diverse staff and player rooster for every play. Team must field 2 to 3 blacks,3 to 4 Hispanics. At 5 to 6 females. At least one trans people on the special teams

Problem solves

IMHO, they should turn the entire MFL over to the Africans and ban all crackers from playing the little boys’ game.

Just goes to show you that “diversity” is a delusional pipe dream at the end of the day. There are only 32 NFL teams, so an NFL head coach is working in a job that is more selective than nuclear scientists or astronauts or Fortune 500 CEOs.

The league commissioner can complain about the lack of diversity among these coaches and even establish as a point of fact (hypothetically) that the NFL needs more blacks in those positions, but no team has an incentive to take a chance and go outside its normal selection process to hire a less-than-ideal candidate just for the sake of a “diversity” goal that spans the entire league.

So NFL teams, for whom it’s all about winning, are ignoring some of the potentially best coaches due to skin color, but don’t take the same approach for talent on the field? Right.

Goodell is not happy about the hiring of coaches to the NFL teams. So what? What can he do about it?

The NFL needs to get rid of this woke bag of dirt. I nominate Condoleezza Rice to take the job. She would put an end to the crap Goodell is delivering.

that last “diversity” head coaching hires, Vance Joseph for the Broncos and Steve Wilks for the Arizona Cardinals were unmitigated disasters ... their affirmative action performance has done nothing but hurt the chances for future hires ... i suppose the only good thing you can say about them is that the Denver Broncos and Arizona Cardinals have taken their turn in the affirmative action barrel and should therefore be inoculated from having to take another dip in that barrel for a while ... it’s now time for some other team to step up to the affirmative action loser roster and take one on the chin for Roger Goodell ...

In sports winning is the key to advancement.

If a coach tends to win, up he goes.

If a coach tends to lose, out he goes.

Black former players might want to move to Texas and offer to coach high school football teams for low salaries.

The key is to get in the coaching business and then work one’s way up.

My suggestion for the NFL is round white balls and eye-catching female soccer players.
