Frustration and anger is mounting with black coaches.  The NFL owners needed a wake up call. Then again, they never imagined an untimely text from a legendary head coach would result in a lawsuit and challenge to their hiring practices.

No Resolution in Sight?

Until one owner, like Rooney, decides to break ranks and publicly denounce the covert unfair hiring practices, the problem will exist. Even the average fan can see the discrepancies and the unfair treatment of the NFL's black coach.

The NFL will be forced to address the lawsuit and no longer sweep ill intentions under the rug.  When will the change come?  Better yet, how will they handle the change?

We shall see.
