“The NFL is still waiting for its first black majority owner.”
"Forbes reports that there are only 15 black billionaires in the world. These include rapper Jay-Z, pop star Rihanna, Tiger Woods and LeBron James. However, their net worth isn’t enough to buy out a majority stake in an NFL team.
For example, the Denver Broncos team was sold for $4.65 billion, a figure higher than their net worth. Plus, to buy an NFL team, you have to buy 30% of the stake, which means that buying the Broncos costs $2 billion in liquid cash. This is a figure that’s beyond what most wealthy black people in the United States can meet, hence keeping them out of ownership."
That’s almost 30% black coaches. That’s over representation! They should fire some until they reach 14% representation like in the US general population. I can’t believe they would steal white mans jobs like that.
Weird take from the NFL.
What’s the ratio of owners and coaches, white vs. black?
32 NFL teams, 23 white coaches.
