Love video
There are no black place kickers or punters. Is that the result of racism? What are the odds of that the coin keeps coming up white? Also there are no while cornerbacks. The NFL is clearly discriminating against whites. What are the odds that the cornerback coin keeps coming up black. Do you really think owners who want to win, and who hire the best players regardless of color, don't exercise the same judgement when hiring coaches?
You can't force an owner to hire someone… The Rooney rule is pure idiocy.
Flores is my hero of the month. Accountability is the only thing that can heal this country.
Owners want to win, so being a black coach isn’t the issue, it’s being qualified to win
No talk of tanking games…….
What if bill plotted this all lol
What about coaches that are Asian, Hispanic, or Indian? You people are almost disgusting hypocrites that are just driving a wedge further between us smh.
Keep crying wolf and yall will always be on the bottom with that victim mentality smh.
I applaud the brotha. Must have a nice job in college coming. Trojans???
Lock republicans up……
Lock republicans up…..
Wait, PLAYMAKERS is back??!!!??
Interviews should be like the old dating game show, you know the ones doing the questions have no idea who is answering the questions. Stops all the BS in its tracks.
For a Team to act against their best interest & NOT hire the best man for the job when winning raises a Franchise value by Millions & even billions. They hate skin color and success and money too.
As a Bronco fan, i wonder how Brian Flores can think he was more qualified to get the Bronco head coaching job than Vic Fangio? After all is said and done that is what he is claiming. Flores was not made coach because he is black. Really that's why, Fangio has decades more NFL experience, Fangio is considered the top or one of the top defensive coordinators and defensive minds in football. Putting Flores resume next to Fangio and it is not close. I really don't think he has a case against Broncos.
It all starts with the black Athletes
Why would we have to put someone under pressure in order for them to do the right thing. Give the right man the job, black or white.
He’s playing the race card
It won't change till we get back billionaires buying the whole team not that minority owner crap. Let me change all that
There is no female coaches…… doesn't mean theres a racist or sexist motive to it unless you are that black and white haha.
White America doesn't care if black coach's get job. Its going to be talked about for a month, then on to the next.
He can get a college job which pays well and has job security.
it is stunning to me how many people think that top jobs in the nfl or in any other business are actually "open". Interviews are just held to satisfy optics and compliance. In reality 8/10 openings are filled the moment the decision is made to fire the predecessor.
Look, I'm latin, and I know there's racism, one way or another pretty much everywhere, BUT! Saying that it should be 50% black/white coaches, according to statistics, it's just idiotic… How many white coaches are? How many black coaches are? So it cannot be 50/50, because statistically, there's many more white coaches than black, just statistically, there's much more white than black population, so yes, it should be more black head coaches, but if you reached 50/50, than it would be statistically racist against the majority.
The only ones who are racists are these people talking, the media and those who believe that owners wont hire a black coach because the color of your skin
What's really wrong here is the Rooney Rule, basically an affirmative action rule. Hiring, or even interviewing someone based on the color of their skin is racism plain and simple. Owners should have the right to hire whom they want without interference. The NFL is 70% black, by the way, more players than coaches.
Do you want to hire a coach on PR? Does a black coach want to be hired for PR instead of merit? Obviously change needs to happen and obviously the shield will protect itself. 50 years since the ERA and it’s like we have gotten nowhere…. Just sad
70% of players are black. So are we going to have a mandate on player hiring? This is so stupid. If you have a great coach, it should not matter what their color is. The team will loose out on winning if they don't hire the best.
Flores should have spoken out back in 2019 not after getting fired!
The Giants come off looking the worst. The Mara family is twisting in the wind right now.
The only way to effect changes in this system is hold the owners
And affiliated sponsors accountable… if a companies name is on a stadium ? tied to the NFL… they get dragged into this as well..
I doubt he will be hired by any team ever. Now the payments to lose games will end up being the focus of this suit. Tanking is illegal.
Technically, they brought him in for the interview that was required…..
It will not only change the NFL it will also most certainly hinder his chances of becoming a head coach or coordinator for ANY NFL team.
I'm confused how Flores isn't being held accountable for fixing games. So are we saying he took money to throw games and did nothing wrong? Flores is sketchy here too if he threw gamea for $$$

The NFL violated his civil rights, his interview was a sham. It doesn’t matter if he’s black, white , male or female. It like filing a college admissions application , and you thought you actually had a chance to be admitted. However, you later find out the college already knew you weren’t going to be admitted and your application was just to meet a race or gender quota. NFL teams are privately owed, however most play in publicly owned stadiums and they also have federal Exemption laws that can disappear. I think the solution will be to pay Flores off, and agree to a federal decree to have a court appointed Arbitrator monitor all future head coaching hires. If the allegations against Steven Ross are true he’s done as a owner. It called Racketeering, he Coerced his coach to lose games and offered him money. He’s rather sell him team than go to prison.
Lafleur, Shanahan, McVay but you telling me NO older black guys are qualified? Boy Stop!!!!!!!!
Now, all we need is Black football players. To sit out every game, protest and bring these Bigoted White Owners to their knees. ?
