Although the Pete Carroll hire is already known to most here at CF, the fear of disobeying the Rooney Rule in this hire may not be. Here's an article that points out the wrangling now going on in Seattle to pacify the cultural Marxists in control of the NFL.
<h1 ="entry-er">Pete Carroll will just be Seahawks coach</h1>

Pete Carroll originally
expected to be coach and president of the Seahawks, but now it looks
like coach is the only title he'll hold. That's not to say he won't
have major say in personnel decisions. It's just that the team has
promised the Fritz Pollard Alliance that Carroll will be working with a
separate club president and/or general manager. It remains to be seen
what the repercussions of breaking that promise would be, but the NFL
takes the Rooney Rule very seriously and the Seahawks are likely to
take a by-the-book approach heading forward.
Watch for the
Seahawks to hire Carroll, then take their time interviewing candidates
for the GM job, while remaining very mindful of the Rooney Rule
requirements. This could lead to the promotion of Will Lewis, Seattle's
current pro personnel director who Friday interviewed with Mike
Holmgren for the GM job in Cleveland. Lewis is widely respected and, by
all accounts, would work well with Carroll.
So the Carroll offer
is coming into clearer focus. It's $32.5 million for five years ($6.5
million per year) to be coach -- and only coach -- of the Seattle
Seahawks.So, another unworthy promotion of a Negro into a higher position, just so they don't look bad or get negative publicity. Just beautiful, not!
