Predict the "Rooney" interview


Mr. Scot

Recommended Posts

I wouldn't do it. I would hire who I want, pay the fine and move on. The rule is actually a violation of Labor law if a team wanted to press it. Just like you can't discriminate and NOT hire someone or interview them based on race, a team can't be forced to interview a minority.

Screw the NFL front office.

You can lose draft picks.

Besides, the rule only says you have to interview. I don't really see a problem with that.

its a waste.the only reason you are interviewing that person bc they are not white.usually teams know who they want, and go get that person.it is a bullshit rule saying we are not going to hire you, but you can be our minority in for an interview.

It's not like they're setting hiring quotas.

There are more black coaches working in the league now since the rule was implemented. That's a good thing, and that's what they intended. Equal opportunity, and it's working.

Now, if some team has their heart set on a particular candidate - for whatever reason - who's to tell them they can't hire the guy they want, regardless of what color he is?
