Brian Flores files lawsuit against NFL
- Thread starter woodchuck
- Start date
I'm not a fan but atleast he makes sense since he just won a Super Bowl and did it with bum ass Nick Foles.....Byron didn't want or need that job. That job is a dead end job. Whoever get it gonna suck a few years and be replaced right when they fix it.
Yeah naw thinking about it, the GM there is horrible. Doug had to get it because BL wanted Adrian Wilson as his GM.
Amazing how chicago Niggas stay saving u niggas
where is da squad and them other niggas yawl me talmbout?
You be saying some of the rawest shit ever bro
We need to recognize these populist whites that look very different to somebody like a MLK, Mandela, or Rosa Parks who are fighting for human rights and dignity.
1. 'Founded' a country or territory through war, displacing the inferior indigenous people to greatly benefits whites and protected their rights to engage in slavery. Washington, Jefferson...
2. Repelled non white immigrant invasion of the country - President Trump
3. Stopped the 'abuse' of government assistance to non whites which hardworking whites were forced to support through higher taxes- President Reagan
4. Helped perpetrate the economic subjugation of non whites through slavery or unequal rights of non whites.
5. Opposed mask or vaccine mandates
6. Stood firm against election fraud that was being perpetrated by non whites.
7. Opposed the unfair government enforcement of law against them imposed by a bi-racial President through the use of force.
8. Tough on crime against non whites leading to mass incarceration, Hillary Clinton - Superpredators.
9. Let say a predominately black or Hispanic workforce demands a $1 raise per hour, the white management cracks down by firing workers or engaging in other illegal practices. This would be populist and the CEO would be a hero similar to Rosa Parks.
I wrote about this in another thread that really applies to the NFL since the management/ownership is white while the players are black. We celebrate fighting for freedom such as MLK, John Lewis, Rosa Parks, or Mandela. Whites for the most part hero worship the oppression of non whites as reflected in statues erected, holidays, or other measures.
Bruce Arians throat slashing Antonio Brown and telling him to leave immediately is a classic example. He stood up to a rebellious black player who defied his order, he would be equivalent to a Rosa Parks. Many whites quietly celebrated this moment on the field. Colin Kaepernick being blacklisted and not selected by another NFL team is another example. I frequently deal with whites that engage in this behavior with me.
I remember farmworkers tried to organize for better pay with a fast food restaurant, the white company ended their supply contract and sourced their products from a low wage country. The NFL or NBA having messages supporting social justice issues or kneeling is antithetical to their culture of oppression. Many of them celebrated the fact of their ratings declining.

To be fair, It's not that simple.
But Flores is not a bad guy
Brian Flores: People with loud opinions on Colin Kaepernick are silent on George Floyd

Dolphins coach Brian Flores has become the first NFL coach to issue a statement on the murder of George Floyd. And it is a powerful one.
The statement, provided to ESPN.com, points out the inconsistency between those who have loud opinions on issues like Colin Kaepernick’s anthem protest and devices for incentivizing the hiring of minority coaches but who remain quiet, relatively speaking, on the killing of African-Americans by police.
“I’ve had the privilege of being a part of many different circles that have included some very powerful and influential people of all different races and genders,” Flores said. “The events of the last few weeks have brought some of the memories of those conversations back to light. I vividly remember the Colin Kaepernick conversations. ‘Don’t ever disrespect the flag’ was the phrase that I heard over and over again. This idea that players were kneeling in support of social justice was something some people couldn’t wrap their head around. The outrage that I saw in the media and the anger I felt in some of my own private conversations caused me to sever a few long-standing friendships.
“Most recently, I’ve had conversations about incentivizing teams for hiring minorities. Again, there was some outrage in the media and talks that this would cause division amongst coaches, executives and ownership. I bring these situations up because I haven’t seen the same OUTRAGE from people of influence when the conversation turns to Ahmaud Arbery, Breonna Taylor and most recently George Floyd. Many people who broadcast their opinions on kneeling or on the hiring of minorities don’t seem to have an opinion on the recent murders of these young black men and women. I think many of them QUIETLY say that watching George Floyd plead for help is one of the more horrible things they have seen, but it’s said amongst themselves where no one can hear. Broadcasting THAT opinion clearly is not important enough.
“I lead a group of young men who have the potential to make a real impact in this world. My message to them and anyone else who wants to listen is that honesty, transparency, and empathy go a long way in bringing people together and making change. I hope that the tragedies of the last few weeks will open our hearts and minds to a better way of communicating and hopefully create that change.”
Change definitely is needed. The decision of the coach of an NFL team to issue such a strong and heartfelt statement underscores that the time has come for reform, for better training, for more prudent use of lethal force by law enforcement.
If the murder of George Floyd doesn’t spark that change, what will? Here’s hoping that influential voices in the NFL and other aspects of society continue to call for change, ignoring the stick-to-sportsters who presumably (and inexplicably) prefer the status quo.

I support Brian with this current lawsuit but he was always sort of a borderline coon in my view but he got his wake up call and he’s doing the right thing.To be fair, It's not that simple.

I think this is a fair assessment
I've been saying this. This is a real problem that needs to be addressed but he has no business being the face of this given his history. Plaintiff shopping is a real thing and I think given how wide reaching/long running this bullshit has been there are plenty of other coaches who have had similarly fucked up experiences without any of the baggage.
This nigga tryna be Nino Brown
“KAREEM was the head of our operations”
“KAREEM was the head of our operations”
Burn the league down
Since 1925? (Ironically, the only NFL East team that has never had a full-time black starting Quarterback)
He no Black
But did any of those coaches have "proof"? It's one thing to "think" and another to be able to put proof on the table, that's probably why some didn't do what he's doing.
1. Whenever I come into these environments, I have such a low expectation now that when you do experience racist shit, it is not a shock and that does not warrant my attention.
2. Don't buy a big mansion house or make expensive purchases starting out in these elite jobs. Bank the money and make your purchases based on what you have saved up.
3. Build your international presence to diversify from the U.S.
4. Most of this takes place at these elite positions where they want to showcase diversity yet bring in somebody white to maintain power, rather than a low level grunt job.

you niggas late to the party as usual with this shit. talkin bout throw it all out... ya'll sat at the table and ate that shit laced food and punch way after Colin. The league been a corrupt corporation just on how it's set up. the financial all the way down the officiating and the rules. just setting shit up on a platter for tom brady and his melaninally homogenous brethren but you niggas can't see past the trinkets niggas get to rent (we don't have ownership we rent in this land, whether you want to believe it or not).
the sport of football really is a gladiator competition that stops just short of outright murder. you niggas feeding each other (our own children mind you) to the beast and applauding it all the while. hell spend money to sponsor it. you see they protect their white boys but they are out there hunting niggas. happy superbowl.

Here's my stance:
Wouldn't it be better if coaches like Flores go back to the college ranks *SWAC, MEAC especially*, and be the ones to mold these future NFL stars the right way?
I get that we all want black coaches in the league, but right now, with patience, we can actually have players coming in the league with better aspirations after the game.
Maybe I'm looking way too far ahead.

Any job that is highly coveted sitting at a desk with a high salary such as IT jobs, head coaching, or quarterback; the amount of racism will be extremely high. They want to quickly cycle you out after showcasing you as diversity and get somebody white into these position. I have actually seen it in person on one job awhile back.
Boyce Watkins quite frequently talks about his experience working as a college professor. These are highly coveted opportunities that whites want to dominate and control that pay well. Expect false accusations of criminal activity to justify your termination.
Working as a farmworker, sanitation, meat processing or housekeeping where these less desirable jobs with low pay, hard work , and no power will greatly reduce the amount of racist bullshit you will encounter. Compare the stress level and drama Deion Sanders is dealing with now compared to a NFL head coaching job or some white college school.
