The paying the coach to tank though? That should get the owner removed. or he should have hired Brett Brown. (boo hiss)
I am not seeing how race fits into this though? You got fired because you didn't want to do what your unscrupulous owner wanted, not because you are a minority.
If they do start digging though and find out some stuff I wouldn't be surprised in the slightest. Get rid of some owners then and bring in some new blood to run the teams.
The race stuff is for others to worry about. For me, as a Dolphins fan, all I want out of this is for the league to get rid of Stephen Ross, the Dolphins' owner. He is so awful and this is grounds to do it if any of this can be proven. Offering a coach extra money to lose? It also shines a light on how shitty the draft process is. They should do a lottery system a la the NBA. By doing it in reverse order of the standings, it encourages someone like Ross to want to lose, and it discourages (and apparently, even punishes) someone like Flores who wants to win.
If they can connect the dots and prove that the ownership is racist and won't hire black coaches then I am all for it. Tear it down.0 -
The Commanders name, logo, uniforms are all awful. The name is also eerily similar to the old arena league team from 30 + years ago.
Blow that stupid franchise up. Actually, NAY.... as an Eagles fan: long live the Commandos! Never change!

At this point I hope Belichick brings him back. (it's not like he's going to be getting any head coaching opportunities any time soon).

I would love to see Bowles as a coach somewhere else.0 -
Considering 70% of the league are Black players, it makes little sense that there is only one Black head coach.0

Maybe start a mentoring program at the peewee level to start coaches?
