Russell Wilson becomes second Black QB to win Super Bowl

Quote:STOP THIS. COMING FROM A FELLOW BLACK MAN.

 

Stop pulling the race card. Those candidates you say were passed over because they are minorities were passed over because there was a better person for the job. THAT, is why they were passed over. NOT because they are Black, or Oriental, or whatever. There is only 32 jobs like this in the WORLD. Blacks only account for 14.1 of the USA's population. Get a damn clue. Embarrasing.
 

Do you think there are equal opportunities or access to work to become the 'best' candidate? Does the brilliant coach at EWC BCU or FAMU even get a shot to get that job at USC FL GA? 

 

Look at this from wikipedia:

Quote:Saban had not intended to enter coaching until Don James, his coach at Kent State, made him a graduate assistant while Saban waited for his wife to graduate.<sup>[13]</sup> He later served as an assistant coach at SyracuseWest VirginiaOhio State,Navy and Michigan State in NCAA Division I-A, and with the Houston Oilers and Cleveland Browns in the National Football League.<sup>[14]</sup> Saban is considered part of the Bill Belichick coaching tree, having worked under him in Cleveland.
 
 

So Saban, a guy who never intended to coach or attend graduate school, just lucked up? Maybe a case of who you know, not what you know right? Who would Coach Joe Schmoe at FAMU need to get in touch with to just will-nilly get a graduate assistant gig and eventually get a coaching job at a university in a major football conference? Who is going to take his coaching pedigree from FAMU seriously, even if the dude was an absolute football genius?
