NFL under investigation in California, New York for race and gender discrimination

Thu, May 4, 2023, 11:00 AM EDT·3 min read
California and New York attorneys general announced Thursday they are beginning an investigation into the National Football League, focusing on claims of workplace discrimination and a hostile environment more than a year after dozens of former female employees disclosed negative experiences working within the organization.
The probe will examine allegations of gender pay disparities, harassment and gender and race discrimination in potential violation of state and federal laws, according to a joint statement released by California Atty. Gen. Rob Bonta and New York Atty. Gen. Letitia James.
The states have subpoenaed the NFL, which has offices in New York and California, for relevant information.
“We have serious concerns about the NFL’s role in creating an extremely hostile and detrimental work environment,” Bonta said. “No company is too big or popular to avoid being held responsible for their actions.”
No employee should suffer in a hostile work environment, James said.
“No matter how powerful or influential, no institution is above the law, and we will ensure the NFL is held accountable,” she said.
Brian McCarthy, chief spokesman for the NFL, called the allegations “entirely inconsistent with the NFL’s values and practices” and said the league offices offer a culture where “employees of all genders, races and backgrounds thrive.”
“The NFL is committed to ensuring all employees of the league are respected, treated fairly, and have equitable pay and access to developmental opportunities,” McCarthy said. “Our policies are intended not only to comply with all applicable laws but to foster a workplace free from harassment, intimidation and discrimination.”
In response to an April 2022 inquiry by James and other state attorneys general, the NFL provided a written response the following month detailing policies and initiatives aimed at improving its culture. A copy of that response was shared with the Los Angeles Times.
The league received no other additional communication from the attorneys general before Thursday’s announcement, McCarthy said. The NFL will cooperate with the investigation, he added.
“We are confident that our pay practices exceed any requirement of the law, and as many organizations do, we regularly take deliberate steps to ensure women and people of color are compensated equitably,” he said. “This includes working with third-party experts to ensure compensation decisions are not impacted by race, ethnicity, or gender, and we are proud of the results of that work.”
The states’ announcement comes more than a year after more than 30 female employees shared their experiences of working at the NFL with the New York Times in a sweeping investigation claiming the organization overlooked them and left them feeling demoralized, despite promises to improve working conditions for women in the league and the overall culture.
The NFL has found itself in legal troubles over the years. One lawsuit filed against the NFL alleged race discrimination targeting a Black female employee and sexual harassment of a female wardrobe stylist. Last month, a former female manager filed an employment discrimination lawsuit in Los Angeles County Superior Court, alleging age, sex and gender discrimination and a hostile work environment.
In 2022, the congressional Committee on Oversight and Reform launched a yearlong inquiry into allegations of workplace misconduct by Washington Commanders owner Dan Snyder, concluding the owner established a “culture of fear” within the team and attempted to interfere with the investigation.
"Despite reports and allegations of abuse perpetrated by both players and male staff, allegations that the NFL has not taken sufficient effective steps to prevent discrimination, harassment and retaliation from occurring in the workplace persist," Bonta and James said in the statement.

Re: NFL in hot water again...
As a result, the NFL will atone for its bad behavior by instituting a program to promote a non-Binary person to become a head coach within 3 years.
Re: NFL in hot water again...
I guarantee - guarantee - we're going to see an institutional push from the league to get women on Head Coach/GM tracks in the near future. It'll start with mandating female hiring on coaching staffs and in front offices. A few years after that, we'll see a female Rooney Rule along with draft compensation for teams that promote.GreatTimes wrote: ↑Thu May 04, 2023 4:23 pm As a result, the NFL will atone for its bad behavior by instituting a program to promote a non-Binary person to become a head coach within 3 years.

Ridiculous that those in the minority historically are being considered for positions generally dominated by a specific demographic because of status & not because they are better than? That's ridiculous to you?

Re: NFL in hot water again...
So start a womens league. Call it the WNFL. It would be part of the solution, But oh wait, it'll fold in 3 years because why? No one cares about women's sports.
So when you start incorporating women into a male popular sport because "Toxic masculinity" people(Men) will eventually lose interest because why? No one wants to see the NFL gradually become emasculated.
Go woke, get broke. Just wait and see.

Re: NFL in hot water again...
I'm sorry, how are we emasculating the NFL? That has got to be one of the dumbest things posted here.
We've been dragging our balls over the sport, and most sports, long enough. This game doesn't belong to only half the population.
By all means there is something to be said about having played the game and then going into the business. Absolutely. But plenty of great staff were not players and are damn good at their jobs. Vince Lombardi, Bill Walsh, and Paul Brown, none of them played a down in the NFL yet we huge parts in its shaping. For unsung executives, scouts, and front office personnel the list is probably endless.
The first one is always the hardest. The first black player, in any sport, was the hardest. The first black QB. The first black coach. The first openly gay player. And in doing so they open the door to the rest. All along the way being told they didn't have it because they didn't deserve it. And then acting like somehow over the last three generations the "black man evolved" enough to handle the "cerebral" part of the game. Give me a break. It's as insulting as it is ridiculous.
You don't need balls to watch tape. A lot of free time, but not balls. And just by sheer statistics it stands that some of our best and brightest FO personal would absolutely be women. And we are doing a great disservice to ourselves and the sport to not bring them to the forefront to elevate the game to its utmost.
And yes, sometimes doing so takes some nudging. Breaking barriers always does, whether it's blacks in baseball or gays in the military. But you know what we get over it, we move on, and we're better for it.

So do you believe that some one who has no experience in getting hit or being hit is qualified to teach? How do they know other Proper techniques and stance?
By all means go ahead make the NFL into an all women's league. No issue from me
In the NHL, a woman (forget her name) who recently was hired for player personnel got canned not long after getting hired by the Vancouver Canucks. She then tried to make a big stink out of it afterwards screaming "inequality" but frankly it was because she couldn't properly do the job or couldn't keep up with the day to day operations. This is what you get when you are just gonna hire someone for the sake of "WE NEED DIVERSITY!" Plus as an extra bonus she'll take you to court and scream "UNFAIRNESS" even if you were in the right to fire her like the Canucks were.
Here is the article. And there you go @Doctor , she was a video analyst. She claims to have PTSD and that the Canucks knew her diagnosis, But It obviously didnt prevent her from getting the job in the first place. When I watched her talk on a podcast, seemed normal to me.
This article is eyerolling. Most people (and in pro sports) just move on after being fired, so take what you've learned and get on with another team or job. Heck, maybe she would have been given another opportunity somewhere else if she left in a professional manner instead of screaming "wokism." In a tantrum, she isn't getting hired again.
So this just seems like more trouble than its worth.
If being in a highly competitive mostly male dominated industry causes you mental and physical stress than no, no you are not fit and its not personal. And I wonder how many women in the NFL will play the same card in the future after getting fired for performance reasons so we get more cry baby articles like this.

Re: NFL in hot water again...
Coaching at a high level is a job that has a lot of credibility requirements. If you never played the game at a high-level, it’s hard to ask your players not to be pussies.
The vast majority of collegiate coaching positions - down to unpaid graduate assistants - require college football PLAYING experience. There have been some exceptions to the rule, but not many.
Can you see why this would be difficult for half of the population?

Re: NFL in hot water again...
99% of men couldn't play the game. You really think at the end of the day when a fat ass 66 year old is directing players what gives him "credit" is his handful of special team snaps from 45 years ago? Oh please.
Also, take it off the field and move it into the FO. Does your bigotry sustain? Women can't crunch numbers?
People don't respect other people for a variety of reasons, most usually having nothing to do with the person. No one is saying it's going to be easy. But the idea that every member of a certain group is "incapable" is just plain idiotic.

Re: NFL in hot water again...
I think front office work is probably more viable, yes. Though, having an understanding of the game and how it works in practical/real terms is also valuable in those roles.Doctor wrote: ↑Fri May 05, 2023 9:46 am 99% of men couldn't play the game.

and yeah, I've seen more than enough players question the bonafides of coaches telling them what to do.
Re: NFL in hot water again...
That's my point. There will always be players will do that. Disrespectful assholes will be disrespectful assholes all day, kids that want to take instruction and improve will also do so. This is always far more an indictment on the player's character than the coaches. "Having played at some level" is not a magic shield against it and acting like it is and therefore a requirement is disingenuous poppycock.
