The New York Giants made a surprising move on Tuesday as they hired 38-year-old New England Patriots wide receivers coach Joe Judge as the team’s new head coach.
Judge spent much of his time in New England as a special teams assistant and coordinator. He never held a head coaching or offensive coordinator position at any level. Yet, he managed to pull off a meteoric rise to Giants head coach — an opportunity that wasn’t afforded to more qualified minority candidates.
While the NFL’s Rooney Rule requires that teams interview minority candidates during every head-coaching search, there are just three African-American head coaches in the NFL — the same number as when the Rooney Rule was instituted in 2003.
During Tuesday’s edition of First Take on ESPN, Stephen A. Smith reacted to the Giants’ hire by pointing out the franchise’s apparent disregard for minority candidates.



Smith said at the start of the segment:

He continued, criticizing the process that led to an under-qualified, 38-year-old white candidate scoring a head-coaching job with the Giants:

In a separate segment, Smith called the Rooney Rule “bogus.”


I've been all over this fool but I will give credit on this particular issue today. He was snapping and rightfully so. :lol:

Wasn’t the complaint on Monday that the Pats receivers couldn’t get separation all season long yet their WR Coach gets a fuckin HC job?!? White Privilege!

We’re getting a glimpse of systematic racism. Marvin Lewis gets an interview and folks are screaming Rooney Rule, this 38 yr old cac gets an interview and no one screams White Privilege. FOH!
 
Giants are fuckin idoits for this hire. :smh:

The problem with using the college ranks as a stepping stone for black coaches is you have to have a degree to coach in college. How many of the upper tier black players who leave school early go back and get their degree? Seems like many of the big name guys get recruited to do tv or go into other businesses. The other issue is that when there's a trend to get the "hot offensive coach" it leaves out a lot of bruthas because not many of them on that side of the ball get to be more than RB coaches or WR coaches. The coaching track to OC seems to be qb coaches and O-line coaches. Gotta get more bruthas at those spots.
 
Why do we still expect whites to give up a place at the table? The NFL is theirs and we’re just the workers. They showed us well before the kneeling shit what they thought. Who ever thought Jerry Jones would ever hire that black coach? You’re either gonna accept the racist league for what it is and keep supporting them, or move on and do something better with your time.
 
The great irony is that the REAL reason why another league can't seriously challenge the NFL is free agency. The last 2 leagues that posted a serious challenge to the NFL were the pre-merger American Football League(AFL) and the pre-free agency USFL. If an NFL player can make more money going to another team within his league, why go to a startup league that can't financially compete? That's the problem. Unlike the other team sports where guys can make good money in other countries, there's nowhere else for a pro football player to go if he wants to make millions to help his family and community. If he's not a QB, he could make more money as a cop or fireman than CFL player.

SAS trying to redeem himself from that Kaep shit a few months ago :lol:

better late than never I guess
 
OK Bart Scott just said some real dumb sh*t...

HE said its STUPID or a Black athlete to say he is making sure to hire a BLACK agent

you should just hire the BEST agent

which somehow makes it sound like just BECUASE the agent is WHITE he is PRESUMED to be better off the bat?

It don't sound like that at all. Sounds like he is saying you shouldn't exclude agents because of race. Just be open to hiring the best possible one that you vibe with.

The complete opposite of what goes on with the NFL hiring process for coaches. Where it seems they are determine to hire white instead of looking at all candidates equally and hiring the best fit.

Now THAT is it!

ESPN need to HIRE YOU cause you can understand they way he SAID it and to that WHITE audience how it was received.

HE said I hear players say they want to hire and support black agents and I say that is STUPID
.
You can infer decipher all you want but him SAYING it like that is stupid.

Especially when he KNOWS damn well what those players MEAN when they say that.

He was also special teams coach but point still remains.
 
Until all or at least 90% or more black players pick up the ball and say we not playing until you address this problem, the same shit will continue to happen. :smh:

The only answer.

I wonder how long it'll take people who hold all the power to realize they actually have the power.
