Peops, y'all been watching these African men turning around these franchises all over professional sports??? Even Eddie Jordan has the Washington Bullets playing great basketball... Marvin Lewis' Bengals are starting to get their stuff together after a rough start, and Dennis Green is building the Cardinals into a winner quite methodically... Lovie Smith has those hated Chicago Bears knocking the snot outta folks on Defense(they intimidated my Giants a few weeks ago), and though Herm Edwards and Tony Dungy's teams have been up and down a little this season, they're both still 6-3...
Do you guys remember a couple of 4 or 5 years ago, after Garfield Heard was fired as the coach of the Washington Bullets, how he said that Black players have a tendency to play harder for a white coach, a tendency to listen and be more respectful of a White man??? Well, Gar, how you gone explain the above-mentioned cats, and their success as coaches, bruh??? How can you explain Terry Porter, and his success with the Milwaukee Bucks last season, or my man, Byron Scott's taking the perennially terrible, New Jersey Nets to the NBA Finals 2 years in a row??? It aint about who's talking, its about what they're sayin', sun(smile!)
I don't think it will be long before we are seeing 2 African men standing on opposing sidelines at the SuperBowl and the NBA Finals... I don't think it'll be long, either, to see 2 brothers or sisters coaching on each bench during March Madness's final game, either... These Brothers and sisters(Vivian Stringer)have major leadership ability, management abiltiy, and coaching mastery, and it is time the world wised up to that fact... I'm having sweet dreams about my homeboy, Willie Randolph returning the METS, the AMAZINS, to the world series in the near future... Willie and I grew up in the same neighborhood, and I just wanna see that brother succeed so bad I can taste it!!! What are you alls thoughts on the power, efficacy, and majesty of African American coaches??? What is their impact, and how far can we see them go??? What are your opinions on this???
Peace!
Isaiah
