That's why I'm thinking they just have to add more teams. These Owners will never give up power over these teams. Some of these teams have it running through the family too. Again I'm done with the benefit of the doubt. The Rooney Rule did help in some areas but now it's clearly not working as it intended. I agree with you about the current teams. They will never give them up to Black Ownership. If you can add a 17th Regular Season game and 2 new playoff teams than some new Expansion Teams with non white Ownership can be done as well. And yes I know about the Black Billionaire group, that was messed up. There's a reason we had the Negro Leagues in baseball originally. As you know we were shut out of all these sports at one time. Sports have integrated since those leagues but ownership level hasn't. I saw that that NBA actually has 14 out of 30 coaches are Black. But even in the NBA, MJ is the only Black majority owner though there are Black owners with minority stakes.
At the end of the day it comes down to does a old white man trust a black man with in billions.
Most Fortune 500 companies don’t have black CEO’s.
The same thing goes on in college football, the only difference is we have HBCU’s.
which goes back to my point of the importance of HBCU’s rising competitively and financially.
This is why I keep telling y'all that this issue will not be solved by White folks. It will be solved by Black folks.
We're gonna have to stop giving away our money and best amateur talent to these PWIs.
We're gonna need to go all in on HBCUs and create a pipeline of players and coaches who are NFL ready.
Then, we're gonna need players to take a stand and support Black coaches.
I mean, REALLY support Black coaches.
I mean great players going to teams specifically because they have a Black coach and you want to be down for the cause.
This is an issue with how we're raised in the Black community to not stay on code when we have the opportunity to get each other jobs the way White folks do.
