The Rooney Rule should be thrown out especially now if Hue Jackson does not get fired.

According to reports the Packers just signed Davante Adams to a 4 year 58 million dollar contract. That comes to an average of 14.5 million a year. If true, this is a big overpayment.

Adams has never had a 1000 yard season and has a history of concussions. He's not a star receiver and doesn't merit that amount of money.

Meanwhile Brian Hartline, who had two 1000 yard seasons, couldn't even get a contract at the minimum. That's because Adams is black and Hartline is white.

I've heard rumors that this will be DC Dom Capers last game as a Packer Coach.

Adams has gotten better every year but you do bring up some valid points regarding him never reaching 1k mark and being injury prone. To me Packers overpaid him by about 20mil! More upset by the amount of $ they threw his way. Id rather them concentrate it on OL and DB corps that were in shambles all year.

Adams has developed into a pretty good starting receiver. But that's only because he was given a lot of time to develop. He was bad his first two seasons before scoring 22 TDs in '16 and '17. White receivers usually have to wait several years before they get a shot if they ever do (racial apprenticeship), and then are never allowed to play poorly for two full seasons and then continue to start.

No doubt agree completely.

I wonder if they'll replace him with an AA hire the way Denver did with their DC.

If they do, say goodbye to their white guy's on Defense!

I'm not surprised, in fact I expected it. Haslam is the dumbest owner in the league and his track record proves it.

This is a classic example of black privilege.

Texans GM Rick Smith (black) taking a leave of absence. He gutted the Kubiak era roster already and they have a black quarterback now so his job is pretty much done.

So after four black GMs have been fired or taken a "leave of absence," we're down to McKenzie, who may (should) be fired, the Browns' idiot Sashi Brown, and the incompetent Chris Grier of the Dolphins. Expect the usual anti-Whites to use their media control to whine and grumble.

I fact-checked the number of remaining black GMs before posting, and found this typical propaganda bite: "African-Americans make up 16 percent of the general managers in the NFL, a league in which 70 percent of the players are black." How nonsensical -- it makes just as much sense to phrase it this way: "In a league in which 84 percent of the general managers are White, just 30 percent of the players are White." Being an NFL player and being an NFL general manager are two totally different jobs requiring two totally different skill sets. In reality, thanks to the league's extremist affirmative action policies for everything except (((team ownership))), the number of White players and White general managers is less than it should be, especially so among players.

Can only imagine how great Janis would be by now if given even close to the same opportunity as Adams.

That would be a great troll job by McMahon. i don't have much faith that it would be any more fair to white athletes though.

I do recollect the XFL to a degree. I can't recall it being better as for as racial makeup. The venture was a partnership with NBC, so that would indicate a disaster concerning fairness. Anyway, the thing vanquished after one year At first thought, the MAGAFL moniker seems a like a nice counter strategy to attract people fed up with the NFL. I''m wondering if Mcmahon is outsmarting himself. The Deep state and all of its branches (most importantly the MSM) that trickle down through our society will hate it. TV revenue is vital to compete seriously. Heck, I can see ESPN lampooning, as spiteful as they are.
