Roger Goodell says dei is a important and valuable part of the nfl. So maybe we can see 25% white 25 % black 25 % Hispanic and 25% transgender players in the near future. My math is probably as bad as the NFLs. Between jerry Jones and Goodell I'm pretty much done with the nfl.

I believe Goodell and the NFL believes they are too big to fail. They may be, but stranger things happen.

Not on my TV, I have a 10Mbps feed with NO extras.

No, I will NOT watch NFL ganes, playoffs or SBs.... Just the way I feel . . . .

Same! Ever since they politicized Colin Kaepernick, I could care less about the NFL!

Yea, right. The average salary of an NFL player is 3.2 million USD and the minimum is $860,,000. I would think it's all about talent and the ability to perform at the highest level. Now admin. and office workers and people in non- coaching or player roles would be a whole different ball game.

9 of 32 head coaches in the NFL are black. Might be time for a little DEI to get it more in line with reality.

Goodell is out of touch with America. Even Starbucks woke up and smelled the coffee.

If Godell. is praising dei .then he needs to show it on the field. That was the point of my thread. Just more left wing bs from the nfl. But I'm tired of it and definitely tired of Jerry.

The NBA lost me years ago with the politics and blm. I played 2 years in juco basketball back in the day. Believe it or not. If the NBA folded and never played another game tomorrow I wouldn't loose sleep over it. I don't watch sports for Roger Godell and owners to push their political views.

“Reality?” That’s probably a pretty good amount. How many Fortune 500 Companies are run by blacks? I don’t care, one way or another, but you can look it up. Leadership, not skin color should should be the main consideration.

Get the word equity out of there and I have no issue


Handing unearned equity to anyone costs some one else who may have earned or is more qualified

They should integrate the lady's lingerie football league in with the NFL. Can you imagine Trent Williams tackling a 5'6" 130# gal in lingerie? I mean, if he could, because she is equal to him in every way.

When I retired from Merck Kenneth Frazier, who is black, was the CEO making about $15m per year total compensation.

As far as pro sports I lose a bit more interest every year. No boycott or anything just not all that interested other than baseball and some hockey but even those not as much as in the past. For the NFL not sure I watched a single game start to finish this year. Watche some but not a lot.
