Time for some fake DNA genetics testings. Offensive coaches can post that they have, say 5% Hindu or Native American blood so they qualify. Even the NAZIs weren’t this focused on genetics.
Meaning: You are the wrong color. You will not be hired.
Another reason not to watch the NFL.
Does “diverse” include any of these?
1. No tats
2. Purple hair
3. 4 ft 6 inches tall
4. Conservative beliefs
5. Inability to get along with and lead people
6. Zero knowledge of football
What is this NFL I keep hearing about, interrupting all the other things I’m involved with?
Why doesn’t the NFL just assign coaches where they want them???
How does the NFL plan to define “female”? Given that this is so confusing that even brilliant legal minds such as Supreme Court Justices can’t figure that out, how will the NFL be able to hire “females”?
The Caucasianish Question is still in the problem solving stage. However, great strides have been made with some more loose ends to tie up.
If it wasn’t for Brady coming back, I wouldn’t watch the NFL.
Now I have another reason to stop.
“Welcome aboard, De’shawn-d’andre — you be our new Diverse Person hire.”
How would that make you feel?
So this Rooney Rule idea, is morphing from interviewing candidates and ensuring certain people are in the mix, to requiring that certain jobs will be filled by a minority or even a woman nowadays. Is that what is happening, and if so, why do the NFL owners feel compelled to do this?
Free Speech is now: “Here are the things you HAVE to say, and if you fail to speak as expected, you will be in trouble.”
Civil Rights are now: “Hire people by their skin color. Also sexual orientation can be considered. Don’t hire people on merit — we might end up with the wrong sort of people on staff. Just hire the “right” people and we’ll be OK.”
How is this legal?
"diverse person" is a synonym for "non-white person"
laws against racial discrimination in hiring mean nothing if this isn't straight up illegal
Does a strange sexual foot fetish count?
Because you know “diverse persons” cannot achieve on their own. They have no merit by themselves. /sarc
This is actually racism of the highest order by the NFL because they apparently believe the above.
What ever happened to meritocracy?
PS Have a Hispanic friend who has dealt with blowback from this type of thing all his professional career. He speaks 7 language, 4 completely fluently with no accent. Has a JD (is a licensed attorney) and a CPA. Best tax lawyer ever. But some people think he achieved success because of “diversity” bias. Really ticks him off.
PPS He’s one of us — hardcore Constitutional conservative. Frankly he makes me look like a liberal, which is not exactly easy...
I guess the acronym for the NFL takes on new meaning.
