Have I ever mentioned that I think it's a crappy rule in this day and age?
Straw man.

When was the last time someone got fined for not interviewing a minority coach? If it's a big name or in-house promotion, they always look the other way.

Sometimes it doesn't even matter: Who else did the Rams interview?
