    Default Former football coach Brian Flores




    Dude is suing multiple teams claiming they are racist for not giving him a 2nd head coaching job... he was literally just a head coach a couple months ago and is now claiming the hiring process is racist even though he's been hired once and there are still 4 head coach jobs open, 2 of which he was in the running for. He can kiss being Saints or Texans head coach goodbye.

    In the video with Mike Greenberg, he comes off as a pathetic weenie cry baby. He is also a narcissist. He says he gifted as a coach, a leader of men and there to build relationships. Seeing as he just destroyed a bunch of relationships by being a cry baby narc, it contradicticts his claim. All they see is a man.that will.lead players to whine and blame others, potentially filing lawsuits to take your money while airing dirty laundry and trying to strong arm you into a job or being attacked as racist, which hurts the brand.


    Good luck to former coach Brian Flores, I doubt he is ever a head coach in the NFL again. A lot of teams will blacklist him entirely from being part of their organization after this even as an assistant. Better luck in college, maybe woke Kansas or Missouri university and their progressive fanbase will enjoy his cry baby antics.

    Flores also alleges that Dolphins owner Stephen Ross pressured him to tank (deliberately lose games), offering him $100,000 for each game he lost in order for the Dolphins to get better draft picks for the following season, and to tamper with a quarterback before free agency. When Flores refused to tank, achieving two consecutive winning seasons, and refused to tamper, Ross fired him and lied about why.
    What an idiot. He easily could have gotten enough chance in the NFL if he had kept his mouth shut... but there are only 30 NFL owners and when you accuse 2 of them of racism and the one who already gave you a job of trying to tank/tamper, you arent ever going to step foot in the NFL again.

    I doubt Flores will even be able to find a college job. Ross is worth ~8b and the Mara family is one of the most connected/influential in the football world, and I think most college programs would rather keep good relations with the NFL owners than hire a mediocre coach who is a narc and/or liar and a narcissist.

    how many athletes in football percentage wise are black vs white ??

    If blacks dominate the sport would you not think they should also lead teams as well as organizations ??

    (IMO the NFL is the WWF ..... fixed as all hell)

    You're only talking about professional Sports. But overall across the entire country, more Whites are involved in organized Sports simply because there are more Whites in this country than any other race. So why should there be more Black coaches or Executives in Professional Sports when the Black population of the country is only at 14%? Any organization, business, club, anything in this country involving a group of people should always be reflective of the current demographics of this country. Because if it was the way these people want it, then Hispanics should have more jobs in the NFL, NBA, MLB, and NHL over Blacks.

    There isnt enough whites and asians in the NFL or NBA. Racist indeed... NFL needs affirmative action to make the league more representative of the USA.

    black men represent 6% of the US population. true equality of outcome would be that percentage of black men coaching/playing professional sports


    would you like that?

    He has good evidence of being racially discriminated?

    When will that evidence be reported? I havent heard or seen any of it yet.

    330 million - 63% white people / 13% black

    207.9 million white people - 103.95 mil white men

    42.9 million black people - 21.45 mil black men

    So there are 80 million more white guys than the enirety 20 million black guys

    The fact that white people vastly out number black people is reason enough, but the fact that 70% or whatever of football players are black means that all those white high school and college players that never had chance to keep playing began learning how to coach at a younger age and getting experience.

    Demanding quotas based on race is asinine and insane.

    The bill belichick text looked pretty bad. It is bad when not only the giants but others outside the organization know the Giants already hired their HC before Flores even gave his interview for HC with Giants. Why even schedule Flores when you already have an agreement with Brian Daboll?

    The Denver stuff is not a good look either. If Elway already had his mind made up on Fangio, why even interview Flores? Then to top it off, Elway arrived a hour late, badly hungover, and just does a sham interview. This one is unfortunately Flores' word against Elway's so difficult to prove. It wouldn't surprise me though.

    Both are obvious. The sham interviews were scheduled just to meet the Rooney rule. Also, let's not act like Flores is a mediocre coach with no idea what he is doing. He is actually a well-respected coach and the players like him. From all reports, he is a good leader and he is a good defensive mind.

    However, you can't force teams to hire a black coach if they don't want to. I would just drop the rooney rule so you don't have sham & humiliating interviews like these just to meet an interview requirement.

    The dolphins stuff looks bad too. Around the same time the owner asked Flores to lose games on purpose, the owner became a co-owner in some sports betting company. That looks bad. Flores says he has a witness who overheard the conversation, texts, and he may have the receipts of the 100k payoffs. Other coaches from other organizations are also stepping forward, claiming similar things so we will see how that goes.

    Whites will be in the minority in 20 years. That's why Poopsie supports white minority rule.

    So you have 20 more years of suffering and crying is what you're saying. I, on the other hand, don't care one way or the other cause I don't look at people based on race, nor do I revolve my entire life and way of thinking around race like assclowns like you do.

    Except that he doesn't. He's basically trying to argue correlation = causation. I don't think that's going to go very well for him...

    In terms of some of the "fixes" he's proposing, those probably won't either.

    1) requiring NFL teams to produce in writing rationale for hiring/firing; this is not going protect anyone. It's very easy to find reasons for these things even if the real reason was racism. They are never going to write "because he was black"

    2) side by side objective rubric criteria; this will simply promote the same "old boys club" he seems to hate so much as obviously they will be the ones with objectively more experience. Also what if a club wants to hire somebody not based off what they've done, but what they might bring in terms of energy or culture. How do you make a criteria for that?

    3) create and FUND a training program for lower-level black coaches; How would this actually fly if you reversed it to say "white coaches." Could you imagine the outrage? Besides that, if you want to promote diversity, why literally only make the criteria black? It makes Flores himself look like a bigot because he wants black people to have a leg up over someone from latin america or asia for instance....again...not a good look and I doubt that would go well for him

    4) create and FUNDING a committee to get black ownership in the league; see #3

    5) incentivize teams hiring and retention of black personell with monetary or draft picks; already happening

    6) complete transparency for pay; This would work if there were a single owner of NFL teams but there aren't and therefor likely will allocate their pay differently based on the way they see their own budgets.

    Point being...he's honestly coming off like a bitter dude who's getting embarrassed by people like BB and now is trying to make something about race and should also be noted is confusing diversity with black rights...which are not synonymous
