Brian Flores files lawsuit against NFL
- Thread starter woodchuck
- Start date
I don't know about the coon thing, but Flores is one of the few black men to go from position coach(albeit with playcalling responsibility) to HC. Jim Caldwell is being fucked over more than Flores. Possibly due to ageism.

Dude's blander than vanilla but not incompetent. He's well over .500 as a head coach.
Im laughing at your proposal that ageism was the culprit when we have hiring patterns and practices literally dating back 100 years which say otherwise.
But i guess if you're racist against a muthafucka long enough he will eventually become old.
How did the Giants violate the Rooney rule when they interviewed Patrick Graham & Leslie Frazier before interviewing Flores? Hell they brought back Frazier for a 2nd interview the day after they interviewed Flores. Giants posted every time they completed an interview to the team Twitter account. Flores gonna need more than them texts to prove his case against the Giants. Now his claims against the Broncos & Dolphins is much more damning. I know those teams are hoping he doesn't have receipts.

It's both. He was one of the finalists for the Bears job. Bill Polian was apparently pissed that new GM Ryan Poles picked Matt Eberflus over Caldwell.
Nver like Belichick either. Always came across as a douchbag and low key racist.
Just like I said in the Black Monday Thread. The Giants interviewed the black coaches to fulfill the requirements for the Rooney Rule. All the interviews with the black candidates were sham interviews. The Giants already knew Joe Schoen was going to bring his less qualified guy Daboll along with him. Now they are bringing the Narrative that he is supposed to turn Daniel Jones into a super QB instead of looking at a possibility to sign Deshawn Watson.
Maybe it's because my bday just passed & I've been thinking a different way because of it....
But I'm looking at how Dustin Rhoades left guaranteed money in the WWE & got his shit together & created AEW.
Had a rough start, but now it seems to be legitimate comp for WWE. The flip side is that WWE is seemingly imploding as each day goes by.
Now I remember that Vince McMahon put his football organization on sale & it was cheap (less than a billy, hell, if I recall, it was $350 mil).
The Rock bought it & he's currently sitting on it....
But this was way after Kap.
Why didn't someone like us buy it?
Why are we always running to this white man to do for us when we have the resources everytime to do for ourselves?
You telling me that Diddy couldn't get $350 mil up with some others & flip that shit into a profitable system in less than 10 years?
C'mon....
We need our own.
We need to move US forward.
We need to stop living under this system where 70% labor & less than 2% are guaranteed profits for a lifetime & more.

I'm glad his ass is caught up in this fuckery aswell.
It took them
years
It took them years to start a black quarterback
I'm not saying the Rooney rule isn't flawed or saying the Giants are innocent in trying to bypass the rule either. All I said was I don't see how they violated the rule based on the evidence being put out there. Now if more evidence comes out vindicating Flores' claims then penalize the fuck outta the Giants and you know I'm a huge Giants fan. In either case I'm glad this is showing how flawed the Rooney rule is & pressure is put on the owners to make things right the way they should be.
Now race aside what made Daboll less qualified than Flores. I'm honestly curious cuz I don't know either of their full resumes. I only know Flores had Miami on a solid win streak to finish off the season though he shouldn't be taken off the hook for the bad losing steal they started with. And I know of what Daboll did with the Buffalo offense
This article from 2016 talks about that. Even then sports writers knew they organization was racist. They Had Eli at QB for 14 years. After Eli they had enough opportunities to give black QB's a chance.
Now only one NFL team hasn't started an African-American QB in its history
The New York Giants are now the final NFL team not to have started an African-American quarterback (Amber Matsumoto). When the New England Patriots handed the ball to rookie Jacoby Brissett on Thursday, it marked the first time in the 57-year history that the team had started an...
When the New England Patriots handed the ball to rookie Jacoby Brissett on Thursday, it marked the first time in the 57-year history that the team had started an African-American quarterback.
Now only one NFL team — one that has been around even longer — has yet to break that streak. The New York Giants, founded in 1925 by Tim Mara, have never started a black QB before.
Now, we’re just stating this as fact and in no way suggesting anything racist about the organization, which has remained in the Mara family hands ever since. And it’s not as if they haven’t had a rock at quarterback, Eli Manning, who has not missed a start since taking over in 2004 — the NFL’s longest current ironman streak at the position. He happens to be white.
Gotta have billions to do it. Not sure why people don't see this because I have since I was in my 20's. The biggst impediment to an alternative pro footbal league that can challenge or surpass the NFL is ironically free agency. The 2 most successful leagues that challenged the league were the American Football League and the original USFL, both existed before free agency. No reason to go to another league if you can move(with some restrictions of course) within your own league. The new USFL coming up next month or the Rock's XFL can't pay Devante Adams what he can make on the open market. The great irony is that in some way free agency and lack of an international presence(like basketball)weakened NFL players' power.
I think both Brians have SB rings from being assistants with the Patriots.
Joe Schoen brought Daboll a OC with no HC experience along with him, clear nepotism. Flores has experience as a HC with 2 winning seasons, clearly the more qualified candidate.
This
The problem is that teams are passing over other ex-HC's with more experience than Flores:Caldwell,Quinn and Pederson. They got interviews, but no one is running like Devin Hester to sign them..right now.

If the so-called black players demanded so-called black men to be coaches, they would. They love to play for the so-called white man and now women

Lot of those players coming out of college only care about signing on that dotted line.. they don’t care what team pick them as long as they get drafted and make the cut..the least of their worries is wondering what the color of their coaches skin is… the funny thing people expect some athletic employees to have more demands Than what themselves actually do.. how many black 9-5 workers demand that they only work for black bizz and black managers? the same people that will complain about athletes are the same people that continue to work for white companies and white overseers and continue to make the white man rich.. it’s funny how people demand others to do things they personally don’t doIf the so-called black players demanded so-called black men to be coaches, they would.
