    First NFL all-black officiating crew!

    So what? Is this supposed to be a huge civil rights breakthrough?

    Are you kidding? It's a historic first for not only the US but for all mankind, like the invention of peanut butter.

    They instituted the Rooney Rule years ago which required teams to interview minorities for head coaching vacancies unless they were planning to promote from within.

    Most minority coaches opposed it because they viewed it as tokenism as most teams had a coach they were targeting and it was just more symbolism.

    There's almost no black players in football, so all the management should be a #ffffff white.

    You didn't watch the PREgame show where this was talked about by black former players, who were happy about it.

    Also that Troy Vincent who is black make statement about it:


    “This historic Week 11 crew is a testament to the countless and immeasurable contributions of black officials to the game, their exemplary performance, and to the power of inclusion that is the hallmark of this great game,” said Troy Vincent, NFL executive vice president of football operations.
