NFL Brian Flores Suing NFL for Discrimination

[Bender]

All due respect but if you think billionaire racists are gonna be bullied into changing their ways then more power to you

As soon as their money is involved...

 

[P-Tizzle]

Which one of those amounts to discrimination?

To be honest, I didn't read the entire lawsuit. you can if you have the time. It's posted all over social media. Also, the BB text messages could be considered discrimination. BB is texting his former assistant coach (Daboll) congratulating him on his new HC job with the Giants. But BB is really texting Brian Flores who hadn't even been interviewed yet.

Steve Ross (aka Alfred E. Neuman)is going to let Harbaugh walk(again) to Minnesota and instead hire guy who looks like he belongs behind the counter at The Geek Squad. I can believe the story that McDaniel didn’t even call plays at SF Kyle Shanahan did. It’s Joe Philbin 2.0 all over again!

Ross‘ conflict of interest and loyalty to Michigan has undermined this organization for years. It’s time for The NFL to step and force him to sell the team.

McDaniel has already proven he can’t handle being a head coach in the NFL, but sure let Ross give him another chance to trash another franchise

1 black hc in the nfl is that enough for you?

This is the same case for everyone else who interviews for that job then regardless. I don’t know the order of everyone’s interviews but if you have your guy you have your guy. What do you do say we want Brian Ada I’ll and we will take the fine for not interviewing Flores?

The point of the Rooney Rule was to interview every candidate, analyze these afterwards and then make a decision internally and officially.

Or: how every regular company hires their guys.

People applauding this just don’t understand

I mean on one hand of course I support the idea that he’s doing this, in principle

But if you don’t understand you can’t fight the game by now, then you won’t ever understand it

So lay down and take it. Good approach to life stud.

The truth is they cant probably prove the Broncos and Dolphins parts to be true. Unless things were, again, written on text messages and reviewable.

Probably true.

Let's see what else comes out. When people have lost jobs, or lost a power struggle, new information often comes out.

Sorry, I don't go with snitches.

Applying street rules to this tells alot about u lol

Yep that’s what I said

 

[Handsome Squidbum]

He is black and latino and he was actually hired as a head coach before the age of 40... what am I missing?

Seems like a move for someone who wasnt hired...

Yeah that's the thing people are kind of overlooking. He already had been hired to be a HC so this isn't about him not getting an opportunity. He refuses to do what the owner asks, is disrespectful to the "franchise" QB (who he ended up with because he refused to do what the owner asked), and then when the owner tries to fix the QB situation (that Flores created) by trading for Watson he dimes out the owner and says he is tampering. Dude isn't getting another opportunity because he wouldn't play ball, not because of race.

Am not a lawyer and can’t speak to the merits of his claims but **** he better win, this is career suicide.

Again this is a dream world scenario. A lot of people know who they already want and have to interview other people regardless. It’s the corporate world. A small business owner can interview one person and say I like you that’s it.

 

[imurcane]

Bigger issue is Ross trying to lose. I don’t see the giants thing as a big deal

They were going to interview Flores after they filled the job. Thats not a real interview.

 

[supersaiyanshel]

TOM BRADY (aka The GOAT): I'm retiring.

BRIAN FLORES: *****, it's the first day of Black History Month. Watch this sh*t.

 

[Fatboycane]

If he can prove the pay to tank, Ross won’t own this team in 24 months.

Hope it’s sooner. What a show

 

[OriginalGatorHater]

We got a lot of people in here who have never hired a single person in their entire lives and think the affirmative action boogieman is a real thing for hiring. LOL!!

 

[QuattroCane]

Dont call out racism, you might be called a snitch afterwards.

How is him not getting the job racism?

This isnt a dream scenario, its literally how hirings are done.

Especially with grading websites for companies, every interview is like an advertisement. If word comes out that you have a ****** hiring process, that you cancel scheduled interviews because you already have your guy, or seem to be less interested in an interview because you have already made your choice (no serious company does this, its stupid malpractice), it paints a bad picture.

 

[Bender]

How is him not getting the job racism?

Rooney Rule. Explained it already.

 

[cway313]

I know the cool thing on social media to do is bluster on about injustices in the world

And it sounds cool to support it and repost give the little likes and reshares

But you either figure out how to win someone else’s game or create your own. This is as useful as the “end racism” **** on the helmets

People won’t like it but it’s true

When you make someone open up there wallet it had a way bringing validity to it. If he settles it will show this is about him and not the cause. If he takes them to court and puts all this on record it will not just be a "end racism" moment.
