You're barking way up the wrong tree if you think i'm ever going to defend discrimination like that. Like with jackie robinson, sometimes things have to be shaken up. Some might be prejudiced against a certain group so the solution is to keep that group out to the extent possible? **** that.
In addition, numerous NFL cities and states have passed laws against this kind of heinous hiring practice for some very good reasons. In civilized parts of society, this "team chemistry" excuse will never fly. Imagine a college student demands a dorm swap cause of having a gay roommate. Now how is it NFL teams can function with a dog killer, a murder suspect (ray lewis), drunk drivers and drug addicts galore, but a single gay player....Enough with the BS excuses.
I'm interested in something and would an answer if you have one. Who asked you what you thought about their hiring practices? How in the hell is it civilized to force your will on others in who they hire and do business with?
Do people even know what the word "civilized" means?
