Literally everyone else in this thread can admit race is a hurdle for qualified coaches like Eric B, Oldham doesn't wanna reckon with that so he poos my posts acknowledging it and makes up stuff to justify his opinion. It's anyone's guess why he's being so defensive about it, the conversation was going well til he showed up. 

Some people who have certain personal issues will default to trying to impune the legitimacy of anything that speaks about said issue.

I dislike posters that poo posts for no good reason.

It would be nice if it didn't actually affect your community rep until you got maybe three to five on the same post by different posters who've already established a certain amount of rep themselves.              

But, it's like I say: "poo flows both ways!"

Yeah, fair point, but it has happened to quite a few coaches in the NFL. Some guys just aren't always the best prepared for this process. 

Look at it this way, if Houston hires Leslie Frazier instead, wouldn't that sort of indicate that maybe it has more to do with EB than it does Houston? And, yes, I realize the guy doing the hiring in that franchise certainly means that racial reasons have to be on the table. 

For what it's worth, minority candidates did better on the GM front than the coaching front this offseason.

Of the six GM jobs available, half (Detroit, Atlanta and Washington) ended up being minority hires.

I'd have to look it up, but if I'm remembering correctly all but maybe one or two of the Falcons GM candidates were actually minorities.

Likely to be another if Kevin Colbert retires.

Funny thing about the Lions, the last time they were respectable was with Jim Caldwell, (they even went 9-7 his last year there which is GREAT for Detroit) then they fired him and replaced with him a worse coach in Matt Patricia, now they're rebuilding AGAIN. WEIRD

Well some things are constant. Death, taxes, shitty franchises being perpetually shitty.

To be fair, we probably would have said the same thing about the Browns last year.

(granted, it is just one year)

Or the Bungles. 

The point being, poo franchises are usually poo for a good reason. They are poorly run.

No argument.

Sometimes it's just a matter of picking the right person to run it. Andrew Berry looks decent so far.

I hope the same can be said of us next year.

This is one of those topics where only a few trusted I feel could have a real back and forth with.

Shame even though its popular, Id hate to be brainwashed into thinking life is all colors. 

True.

Fact of the matter is that as of about 5 years ago the league was grossly 74% minority. But nobody questions whether the  white guys aren’t getting a fair shot because of the color of their skin. Everyone assumes the best players play, and I personally believe that is the case. Why we hold a different standard to coaches or other leadership is beyond me. Let the best man win. Who gives AF if he’s purple, red, or green.
