@ButtCrackSports He needs to spend the off-season working on being in the best shape in his life.

@drboycewatkins1 @elonmusk We should be boycotting Tesla over their treatment of black workers. The state of California just sued Tesla for running their company like a plantation.

@NFLonFOX It may be the last football game for you, but I’m tuning in to the USFL. #CantStopWontStopUSFL2

@CliffWLewis @RunnerrRyan @RapSheet No one expects there to be black coaches in hockey. There are few black hockey players. The NBA hire white coaches all the time in a league that is 80% black. It’s actually the most diverse sports league.

@skydivewill7921 @RunnerrRyan @RapSheet That’s a question for the NFL based on their hiring practices. On the field they select based on the best talent. In the office they select on who they know and get along with the best.

@HighfillBlane @TeamRealtree89 @RunnerrRyan @RapSheet They make it about race when they keep changing the goal posts about what it takes to get leadership positions, but at the end of the day it’s about winning. So we will see how all these hires do in 4-5 years.

@rolandsmartin Do you think your tweet about the Texans possibly hiring a head coach with no experience led them to hire a black head coach?

[Akbar James @AkbarJames4]

@TeamRealtree89 @RunnerrRyan @RapSheet The part about forcing organizations to interview black candidates which you are talking about outside football. They don’t have to interview black candidates. Dude we are in a global market. Let them make that stupid mistake.

[Akbar James @AkbarJames4]

@TeamRealtree89 @RunnerrRyan @RapSheet That has nothing to do with football. If you look at the resumes of all the coaches that were interviewed in this past cycle most of those positions should have gone to black head coaches based on their experience and winning Super Bowls.

[Akbar James @AkbarJames4]

@RapSheet Houston, GM should be fired. He is incompetent. He could have hired with Leftwich or EB last year. He only hire Lovie because the NFL put pressure on him. He was going to hire someone with no coaching experience for the position.

[Akbar James @AkbarJames4]

@RunnerrRyan @RapSheet Ryan, what evidence shows they are better for the position? History shows they get preferential treatment. There have been over 500 white coaches and 24 black head coaches. 2 black head coaches have won a Super Bowl. 4 have taken their team to a Super Bowl.

@RepEngland70 If you convince black football players to stop going to the University of Alabama the state of Alabama may have a change of heart.

@SportsCenter The difference is CP3 didn’t push him in the back after the play or when he taunted him. If Pat Bev can’t take it don’t diss it.

@rolandsmartin One of the things are like about you is you don’t feel your are too above the people to communicate with the common people. I disagree with you sometimes, but enjoy your platform. I supported you this year and will support you again in 2021.
