    So true man.. I feel for sparano even though he is a douche with those sun glasses.

    Miami reminds me of guy who string along a girl, waiting to hear from another girl first before he makes his move

    anyway, sparano just was told he was keeping his job anyway.

        rules like this are what keep racisim even alive to this day. they try to make a rule to make it fair in their mind, and instead they make the people that are part of the race they are trying to protect look like fools.

        you know we're not going to hire the giants guy, yet hes wasting his time interviewing with us just because we're forced to interview a black guy. all its doing is hurting him, he has to know hes just being interviewd to satisfy the rule

          You realized he had a medical condition that required him to wear those glasses, and you still made fun of him?

          Your past posts have hinted towards your maturity level, but this one confirms it.

            This is the stupidest rule in modern sports. If you don't want a black coach, then you shouldn't have to hire one.

              When is the NFL gonna enforce the Hillis Rule, making all teams have a white RB?

                Distinguishing race like this only reinforces that their are differences between us. As Dave Chappelle said, "Our differences are only cultural". Rooney is a douche. I want reparations beaotch.

                  It is a pretty pathetic rule. Will Rooney be satisfied when every personnel and player is black? If ANYTHING there should be a interview for white players during the draft. God knows how many other Hillis' and wide receivers there are out there that will never be given the chance. Blacks dominate the sports scene, they certainly don't need assistance in the hiring department, too. Rooney, what a white guilt ridden moron. I could say a lot more and go on, but what's the use anymore. Screw this PC shit.

                    NFL ownership plans to use the poor economic climate as leverage in potentially capping rookie salaries in the upcoming CBA negotiations.

                    The hypocrisy of Miami offfering a coach with minimal NFL experience 7-8 million a year cannot be overlooked.

                    WTF over

                    Both the union and NFL management are on board for a rookie wage scale. It has little to do with the 'poor economic climate'. The question will be what to do with the money saved. The union, naturally, wants that money to go to proven veterans. The ownership is reluctant to guarantee that it all go to player salaries.

                    There is a salary cap now, the only question is how to distribute that money within the cap: to overpriced unproven rookies, or to proven veterans.

                    The issue of what to pay the coach has noting to do with that.

                      I don't know if it hurts him. Leslie Frazier was one of those guys who got what you might call several of those "token" interviews. Yet in them he impressed people....to the point now that he is the full time coach of the Vikings. The same thing happened to Lovie Smith.

                      It has opened doors for several people.
