Why does this ording not outrage everyone? I thought the goal was equality and hiring without regard to race or gender.
What if someone were to state that they were hiring in this order: 1. White Males 2. White Females 3. African-American Males 4. African-American Females. There would be no end to the ourage (and rightly so).
Why is discrimination right if it occurs in one direction bu not in the other?
What if the teams were required to have a composition that matched the area of the team. If that were the case, most teams would have to replace over half of their players.
All jobs...players, officials, coaches, etc. should be filled strictly based on ability...NOT gender or race...EVER.
