After29Put me in CoachIn this episode the guys tackle the lack of diversity hires in professional sports, especially in the NFL.

As it stands, the NFL has 32 franchises and out of that only 3 teams have a coach who is a minority. 10% doesn't sound like much does it?

After29The Value of a ManWe all know that men and women fundamentally look for different traits in a potential mate when dating. Men tend to focus more on outward appearances, the potential of peace and supportive qualities. Women tend to look at financial stability prowess, security and emotional availability.
