I can appreciate the fact that a black coach hasn't been to the superbowl and that it is viewed as an accomplishment to some...and rightfully so, I suppose.

 

But, it saddens me because I would never have thought about their color.

 

Honestly,

It is 2 GREAT coaches in the superbowl.

 

Not 2 BLACK coaches.

 

I think sometimes that people who AREN'T prejudice don't worry so much.

 

 

I agree, but any "first" milestone is kind of a big deal. I think it's a very big deal that the democrats are more than likely going to nominate either a woman or an African American to run for President. It's not that I'm prejudice against either group, but IMO it's the step in the right direction. Brown Vs. The Board of Education was a big deal, but segregated schools is not even an issue anymore.

I agree. :thumb:

 

It is the FIRST time, so i'm down with that.

I tell you what. I think that having two african american coaches in the bowl is a HUGE deal. Just a few years ago the naacp was making a big push in the league to get more black head coaches out there. Apparently their stance was the right one. I feel like any year Peyton has had a good chance to go to the bowl and will go again. I feel like it is a big deal more for him personally than on a national scale. On a national scale having two black coaches will do wonders for the hiring practices of all professional, college, and hopefully high school athletic programs throughout the country.

Manning finally makes it!

There's one other storyline that's being overlooked in the sickening Peyton love-fest: The fact that if the Colts go and lose, Manning will still be no better than Marino on the postseason failure list.

Manning finally making is definitely number 1.
