The NFL gets racist
How, you might ask, is the NFL requiring minotirty candidates to be interviewed racist?
Well, for starters it’s a rediculous rule. Teams should be able to interview and hire whoever they want. They don’t require teams to give tryouts to a certain number of white guys. After all, there are far more black players than there are white. White’s should be given an equal oppurtunity. But they aren’t. Why? Because no one cares. Nor should they.
Whethere it’s genetics or not is up in the air, but I think most people would agree that blacks are just better corner backs, better recievers, and better running backs than whites are. Why doesn’t matter, the fact is they are.
In the same way, whites tend to get better test scores, better grades, and go to better colleges. There’s no arguing with that. It’s a statistical fact. It wouldn’t seem, then, to be much of a logical step to assume that people who are at a higher acadmic level might just make better coaches.
Football is, after all, a thinking man’s game.

I suppose it could be taken that way.
Of course, I have yet to have someone give me a good counter argument
