I dont lose any sleep over it.
However, being completely objective, its a bit odd that the large majority of the league’s players are black and the large majority of the league’s GM’s, HC, OC, and DC are white.
Is it racism? Im not sure it is. I think its more complex than that.
Its clear in sports that the elite African American athletes tend to be faster and stronger than the elite athletes of other races. So in a sport like the NFL where speed and strength are literally measured and coveted it makes sense that the large majority of the players in the NFL will end up being african american.
I cant, however, objectively explain the lack of african american coaches in the NFL or NCAA football programs. Same thing when you look at the NBA - its an extremely disproportionate number of black coaches when one takes into account that the vast majority of players in the league are black.
By their very nature, minorities are minorities because there are less of them in the general population. If I objectively look at it that way logic holds that there will be many more white candidates thank black candidates applying for these jobs so perhaps that ends up skewing the numbers in favor of more white coaches in these programs.
But that explanation doesnt completely satisfy my objectivity. You figure that in a sport like football, where the college ranks are SATURATED with black players, and then the NFL is largely dominated by black players, that there would simply be more black coaches. But i dont have an adequate answer as to why it fails to translate.
