With "inappropriate" being substituted by "racist" to evoke more emotion and irrationality.

Yeah, that's the narrative trying to be spun. Of course reasonable thinking would suggest that you don't need to have elite athleticism to be a coach, GM, etc., so NFL FO and coaching positions should mostly reflect national demographics just like any other profession. Of course there's not a lot of reasonable thinking when it comes to these sorts of things...........
Although to be fair to Flores and his lawsuit - it is super ricockulous that guys like McDickface are getting 2nd chances before guys like Flores, Marvin Lewis, etc.
