Equal Opportunity
« on: May 27, 2012, 07:21:41 PM »
I apologize ahead of time if this isn't the place for this topic, so feel free to move it the appropriate area.


I was curious if anyone else has wondered, since the equal opportunity laws have come to pass, why the NBA, NFL, NHL or any other sports organization that has a majority of one race or nationality on a team hasn't been subjected to the law.  Since choices involving other types of jobs are made according to racial and gender equality, why not jobs in the sports organizations?

  I think Cannon has it.  Have you noticed how some big sports figures commit crimes others would be serving a long time in jail for..but somehow, they manage to work any sentence around where it doesn't keep them from playing on the opening day of the new season.

Do you speak German? Well I don't speak Spanish so maybe you'd better learn English.
