I think it is clear that many here believe racism is a big joke. Says a lot about them, for sure.

Its easy to laugh about it when it doesn't affect you and you actually benefit from it.
 
Mike McDaniel is not a minority, unless you count being a football player at Yale as a minority group.
He "identifies" as mixed race. His father is black.

Harry "identifies" as a good football player.

Yeah, sometimes you wonder if the ID is correct or not!

I’ve read that his mom is white and his dad is half white/half black….so 1/4 black, which is more than enough for the NFL to claim that he is a minority hire.

Mike McDaniel says his father is a black man. Does that not qualify him as a minority.
You better let the NFL know your inside scoop because they are awarding the 49ers picks for developing him as a minority coach who was hired as a head coach.

So what you are saying is McDaniel isn’t black enough??

Where did you read this about the father, because I've heard him talk about his childhood experience of basically living with the half of his family that was all black and he didn't even understand his skin color was different. If there were white people in the room or the family, I doubt he would have said that (that he was a unicorn, only light skin person).

And for all the talk on this board of what people should look like (not referring to you Patsgofor4) I have a friend who looks totally white, white complexion, straight hair, but his mother is 100% black with dark skin. My friend married a white woman, their first son looks like the mother, the second son is much darker than the father and has curly hair.

So, many assumptions are being made here that totally ignore genetics.

Please quote the posts from “many” that cause you to conclude they believe racism is a joke.

No, just that at first glance you wouldn't know it by looking.
 


This is not going to go well.

I'm over 50 but my kids might say "cringe" to this, and even that word is probably only for the 20+s now.

My job is to do my job.
 
This is a hilarious way to put it when we're talking about Steve and Brian.
Steve and Brian check all the boxes:

1. Home grown - Check
2. Friends of Bill - Check
3. Belichick tree - Check
4. White - Check

It's a no brainer.
 
So right now there is Tomlin, Lovie, Rivera and McDaniel as minority HCs. Am I missing anyone?
