Vic Fangio goes full reerun

Good job saying the absolute worst thing a HC in the NFL can say on a day like this. Optics here are horrific. Broncos PR is already feeling the heat LMAO

<blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">Vic Fangio: "We're a league of meritocracy. You get what you earn I don't see racism at all in the NFL. I don't see discrimination in the NFL."</p>— Andrew Mason (@MaseDenver) <a href="https://twitter.com/MaseDenver/status/1267944235258413056?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">June 2, 2020</a></blockquote> <script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>

LMAO

While I’m over the “NFL is so racist” narrative, this is hilarious.

Amid nationwide protests over systemic racism and police brutality that were brought to light once again by George Floyd’s death last week, Broncos coach Vic Fangio said Tuesday, “This is a societal issue that we all have to join in to correct.”

“I was shocked, sad and angry when I saw what the policemen did to a handcuffed George Floyd on his stomach that led to his death,” Fangio said in a prepared statement during a Zoom conference with the media. “(Minnesota police officer Derek Chauvin) should be punished to the fullest extent of the law for the crimes he has been charged with, in addition to being charged with treason for failing to uphold the badge of the uniform he was entrusted with.”

Fangio’s remarks came on the heels of a pair of team meetings earlier in the day in which team president Joe Ellis urged Broncos players to use their platforms to speak out against racism and discrimination, adding that the team had a responsibility to do so.

Good Lord, why come out and say that especially now

He's not wrong but ROFL

If the Broncos were a meritocracy, you'd think they'd have had a better quarterback over the past few years.

Or a better head coach, for that matter

hes FOS. Locker rooms may be color blind but they are not meritocracies. It’s 2020, show me a locker room that would accept a gay player.

Denver Broncos I'm pretty sure.

Riley Cooper says hi Vic!

Regardless of your opinion of what he said, this was an EXTREMELY ill-timed/tonedeaf comment. Not smart at all.
