NFL 2010 Season Thread

I hate affirmative action because I think it perpetuates racial issues. I feel that the best man or woman should be hired for the job, end of story. The NFL should investigate if they believe a team would deliberately interview only white candidates versus a minority, but to mandate that minorities must be interviewed keeps the issue alive, in my opinion.

Now, don't get me twisted, because I have nothing against a minority head coach. How do you think it feels to a minority if they are the one brought in to comply with an affirmative action rule? Especially in a situation where they know that the team may already have someone in mind? They know that they're just going through the motions. And that's bullshit. To me, I think that's a slap in the face, and worse than not being interviewed at all.
