My brother, who is very Left, tells me that big league sports are very racist. Look at Football, Basketball, Baseball -- you almost never see Black people earn big bucks!! Oh, wait ... You almost never see the credit for the win going to the Black guys!! Oh, wait ... You almost never see Black head coaches!! Yeah, that's it! Racist to the core, man!

Those sports teams don't care about hiring the top people! They don't bother to do what it takes to win! They're not struggling to generate huge profits, no matter what it takes! Professional sports is all about keeping the Black Man in his place!

Sports teams care about two things, which go hand in hand: profits and winning.

If hiring this or that coach would guarantee a Super Bowl win, you bet your life each of the 32 NFL teams would pay huge money to land him, no matter what his race, religion, etc. is.

"Professional sports is all about keeping the Black Man in his place!"

I realize you're being sarcastic - but you uncover the flaws in his logic - if in fact the league's failure to hire black head coaches is based upon racism rather than business, then the league would be hiring less blacks to play on the field.

How can Jackson deny the fact that this is purely business?

I have a question, with no visible means of support, how does Jessee pay child support?
