It's not a real chance. Its fake. It's lip service. So why are they still doing it?

I believe there are several teams who have mentioned that they hired a black coach they didn't have on their radar because of the Rooney Rule. Dungy is the big name that immediately comes to mind.
In my opinion... if you're a team that consistently conducts this Rooney Rule interview as lip service, then they're idiotic. Frankly, I've seen Buffalo treat the rule this way, and it's a big reason why that team is such a joke.
