Well the NFL’s horrendous “Rooney Rule” caused more harm than good. The Houston Texans has fired head coach Lovie Smith after Smith led the team to a 3 and 13 season. And all the gasbags who have to fill up hours of airtime to fill up as sports are played at night and on the weekends have to find a reason. Well of course the reason for firing Smith was for racism! Not because of a horrendous record. There are a number of reasons why Smith was fired. Obviously, a disastrous season. There is also the possibility he did not get along with management, the players, the coaches, or he put the wrong people on the field. Football is a business. Teams have 10-15 opportunities to get asses in seats! They are not going to get people to go to games, buy beer and jerseys with an inferior product. Just ask the New York Jets and Washington Redskins! But of course, the reason was racism!
These race baiting blowhards need to realize that everything is not about race. This is not 1955 where black players and coaches have to sit in the back of the bus or stay at different hotels when they travel! Smith and co are one of the main reasons people are turning off ESPN! Nobody is buying the racism angle, except dummies.
