Okay, so he's retiring! For real this time! Apparently, someone within his inner circle leaked the decision early. Deflating.  |

NFL NEEDS TO ADDRESS THESE SITUATIONS:
--FROM NYT --02-03-22: By David Leonhardt
Good morning. Most N.F.L. players are Black. Only one head coach is.
Brian FloresWilfredo Lee/Associated Press
' ‘Bigger than football’
Second and even third chances are not that unusual for N.F.L. head coaches. Over their careers, several coaches have run three different teams, and most of them had only mixed records of success before getting the third job. If they had excelled in one of the earlier two jobs, after all, they might have still had it.
The list of coaches to have run at least three teams without having won a Super Bowl includes John Fox, Ted Marchibroda, Wade Phillips, Dan Reeves, Marty Schottenheimer and Norv Turner.
Football fans might notice something about that list: All the coaches on it are white.
No Black man has ever been the head coach of three N.F.L. teams. (Romeo Crennel is the closest, having been the coach of two teams and the interim coach of a third team, for part of a season.)
But there are certainly Black coaches whose records resemble those of the white coaches who have had multiple coaching chances. Jim Caldwell, Marvin Lewis, Anthony Lynn, Lovie Smith and, in an earlier era, Dennis Green and Art Shell all won more games than they lost and took teams to the playoffs. They never got a third chance or, in some cases, a second chance to be a head coach.

None of this is any of my immediate concern. Discussion of House Committee hearings can only lead to political talk. Racial discussion on this forum has proven to be divisive and difficult. Let’s just forget this post ever happened… |
