How come Dallas or San Fran were not fined? What they did was worse. They paraded minority candidates in the door and hired "their" guy anyway. Was there any doubt ole Tuna wouldn't be hired in Dallas. Where the hell did SF come up with Erickson? He wasn't even on the list.
The Bears are probably up for a coach this offseason. I'm hoping for Denny Green. I can't think of any other coach out there now that could do better in Chicago. What if they only interview him, Blache, and say... Singletary (currently LB coach for Baltimore). Is that racist?
This whole situation would be better handled by the NFL if they just exerted (quiet) pressure on the teams to bring in qualified minority candidates for all openings (interviews) and did not force teams to parade in "tokens".
