Be sure to count the number of general managers and owners, too.

Which is what the thread started as.

Guess you missed the several instances where Macallan and I mentioned that we too were happy for those coaches.

I didn't challenge here feelings at all......shut up. Perhaps you should go back and read where both Shiner and I stated that we were very happy for both coaches.

Oh ok........but its alright for DSTCHAOS to.

You made a completely idiotic, borderline dumbass statement about the lack of owners that are black in the NFL. You needed to shut up.

Nope. It isn't. She's not told me to shut up to this point, and I didn't realize she had someone else.

I think it's childish when anyone says it.

As for my statement -- that's your opinion.

At least I can give mine without profane language.

I'll be sure to start a thread next time there is a game in which two white running backs start against each other.

Aw, guys. It's one thing if you want to make the claim that the time has arrived that we should consider only the individual's circumstances because the wrongs of past group discrimination have been addressesed or that it's better for individuals in the long run to focus on individual merit. I don't know if I'd agree, but both claims seem like they could be made in good faith.

It's something else if you want to claim that the absence of black head coaches was purely coincidental and that individual simply "weren't qualified" for a job that in some ways there are no set qualifications for. Do you also imagine that the reason that southern schools didn't integrate until the early '60 was because there were no qualified applicants? You seem to be ignoring history completely.

I kind of doubt that every owner or general manager actually thought, "well this guy is better qualified, but we can't hire him because he's black" but other people may believe that it was that direct. I think that for whatever goofy racial reason, they couldn't see the black guy as fully qualified.

Now, I'm done too here because this thread doesn't need any more of this either.

Superbowl coaches! Woo Hoo!

Yeah man, we just don't understand. I generally think rooting for one race over another is wrong, but you told us. Guess we're just not at your enlightened level of "consciousness." Hell, you should talk to Bobby Petrino, if he had known about the incredible injustices in the NFL, he probably wouldn't have taken the Falcons job. Wait, for my reference, what were those injustices again?
