    Now you are doing exactly what caused many of the issues you are concerned about in the first place. You are making assumptions about people's ability to do their jobs based on race.

    jojo - you have entered the endless loop of hell. There's no way to make it stop other than to walk away. Doesn't matter if you are right (and I stopped following this discussion once a certain few got involved). It will not stop. Must have last word. So take a hit for the team and move on. Your points were made, and I assume made well.

    I really hate it when stuff like this comes up because we're all part of the same race - THE HUMAN RACE.

    One of the best. His book Nobody Asked Me But should be mandatory for all sports scribes.
    And Azhole, I'm not talking about Joe Louis.

    So anxious to take a dig at me, you couldn't even manage complete sentences.I can't even express how disappointed I am in you, not that you give a damn.

    The next time you do that in a similar situation will be the first, Drip.

    That's the case when hiring for any job. I really don't know how you eliminate the human element --- or even if you should.

    Fair enough. Then why the quotas in the first place if we're all color-blind?
