    So you are saying that hiring a black coach with an impressive resume over an inexperience white coach is the same as hiring a blind airline pilot.

    I’m saying you should hire who’s best qualified regardless of race
    And a private company can hire anyone they want

    And if you do a hit piece on white coaches make sure they are white

    you know the Texans just fired a Black coach right ?
    The Rockets have a Black coach but everyone wants him fired , is it because he’s Black or because we suck?

    His Black level wasn’t dark enough
    He was LED
    But these amateurs thought he was OLED

    @MexAmercnMoose
    Ron Rivera is the coach for the Washington team
    Should they replace a Latino with a Black coach because Gringos think the only races in America are Black and White?

    Then you agree with what the movement is about - that black coaches are discriminated against as less qualified white coaches get the job over better qualified black coaches.

    I love being woke. It depends on my moods of the day, I can be a white guy on a Monday and a black guy on Wednesday and a brown guy on Friday, and then on the weekend I can be a woman. My Vietnamese refugee mother always told me that in America, you can be whatever you want to be. Her words have never been truer.

    One thing I don’t ever want to be is Chinese. If you ever called me a Chinaman, I’m dropping hands, and since I’m a well trained boxer, I will knock you out.

    The Texans and dolphins fired their Black coaches
    Why ?
    The Dolphins actually played well

    Should we get the police and government involved?

    should Mike McDaniels sue Deadspin for libel ? They labeled him white when he’s not.
    I would sue them and put that whole company in the dirt if I was him or at least get that writer fired or black listed

    The question isn't whether someone should fire coach x or sue y, but rather there is bias against experienced black coaches which appears to be the case.

    That doesn't have anything to do with the discussion. So what if a black coach is fired?

    Deadspin is the woke media? I thought they were a sporting news site.

    I think the whole woke thing is overblown and just another word for "PC" - and there's nothing new under the sun. Same old culture wars. Same old BS.

    I know some many on the right who complain about liberals wanting transgender rights and how it pisses them off so much, and I just think to myself, how about we figure out the real problems in this country.

    The real problems aren't Dave Chapelle, or the 7 Dwarfs, or some coach being mistaken for white or black or latino or whatever. It's freaking mental health crisis, education, health care, etc. All this other crap is just a distraction.

    I guess you don’t know the story

    Rachel Nichols got firedy
    Then they offered Maria Taylor her job for more money
    And Maria Taylor took more money at NBC
    She used the woke event to get more money

    I’ll bump the old thread for more context

    rachel Nichols was a popular espn nba figure
    She did a show with Tmac
    @Os Trigonum @Jontro
    You know who Tmac is ?
