Sorry Romeo screwed up the percentage of black head coaches, Mr. Gulliver. But he was let go because he had no idea why we couldn't win a damn game or how to resolve the problem. I don't give a flying **** if our head coach is an Asian cross dressing transvestite with pink hair and wearing stilettos. I just want a return for my investment to the team with a coach who knows how to motivate and properly coach a team. Enough of this Affirmitive Action BS.... Best man gets the job regardless of skin color or sexual preference. Owners aren't going to hire a guy just because he's the best canidate OF HIS RACE. And as a fan I want the best option on the field to make my Sundays less miserable.

Now, make the Chief fans happy and draft a black quarterback #1 overall, and we'll all be happy.

For a minute there, I thought you were going to require a certain amount of white guys on a team, like with a rule or something.




But equally dim-minded is the thought that "talking about color" is what causes men's hearts to tend towards racism.

Where are all of the lesbian coaches?

Are you being serious? If so, I was under the impression that the term 'midget' was offensive to little people.

Bigotry over height or any unchosen physical characteristic seems pretty absurd to me.

Nice idea, problem is it doesn't happen.

Maybe if we fire all the white coaches and hire all black coaches someone will be happy.

The Rooney Rule is stupid.

Any team would do what every they could to sign Mike Tomlin if he was available. You know what I mean.

Do we really think the NFL is keeping the black coach down?

There are only 32 head coaching jobs.
There are only 32 GM jobs.

It's not going to be representative of anything because its too small of a club.

The NFL should instead celebrate that one of its best coaches is black (Tomlin).

The NFL should celebrate that on of its best general managers is black (Newsome).

And tell Tony Dungy to quit bitching and start coaching if he wants more blacks roaming the sidesline. You too Herm. That dude could be a damn good coordinator but he would rather be a celebrity.

I'm so sick of this $hit.

Who would win the Super Bowl then?

A white owner?

Can't have that. Its like a slave owner.

You see whitey will always be involved in this equation then won't he.

I say fire all the damn white owners too and let people like Vince Young and MC Hammer run the business.

Now we are getting somewhere

Someone should hire Clay Travis as their head coach, he is a gay Muslim, that takes care of two birds with one stone.

Somebody on 810 today had the nerve to bitch about Romeo not getting an interview...are you ****ing kidding me? That man is the worst head football coach I have ever seen. Ever.

Actually, I do think it's odd. I was wondering why Lovie Smith hasn't received more opportunities. He was a 10 win coach last year. But forced diversity isn't the answer. Trying solve social issues with more rules isn't what I believe will solve this issue. We need to study why there aren't more qualified minority candidates. Is it because of colleges? Or might there be another reason?

We know that talented players don't often make the best coaches. So if it's a different skill set, then maybe there doesn't have to be a strong correlation between the racial ratios of players and coaches. No one really gets mad that 67% NFL players are African American. That just seems normal even if the US population is only 13% African African American. There obviously some reason we have a far larger ratio of African-American NFL athletes, but I'd guess it's based more on interest and talent than racism. Is it possible that the ratio of coaches more closely resembles the national ratio because of a different playing field in terms of talent and interest? Right now about 9% of the coaches are African American, but last year it was about 15% (2% higher than the national ratio). It seems to me that maybe there should be more study put into that before forcing a more divisive rule than the one we already have. Just a thought.
