Shouldnt they allow more HISPANICS in the NFL?

Question

all I ever see in the NFL are white people, no hispanics,

Hispanics are freakishly athletic also

Answer 1

Football isn't as big in other countries as it is in the U.S. That's why we mainly see African Americans and "white people" They're allowed into the NFL...most just don't have the skill unless they were born here.

Football is USA's sport.

Answer 2

It has nothing to do with nationality...it has to do with athletic ability.  

TONY ROMO IS MEXICAN!!!

Answer 3

lol what about the asian people?

Answer 4

its not that they're not allowed lol it has alot to do with scouting and getting yourself out there, which is in college, and not alot of Hispanic males go to college, and its not a racist comment because im Mexican its just true.

Answer 5

They have these things called practices where they pick the best person for the job.

Do you need special consideration to make the team.

Answer 6

said it before, and I'll say it again....I've known some really great highschool football players that never had a shot at the NFL simply because they couldn't make grades in college.    Perhaps the answer is to have a minor league football system of some sorts....much like baseball does.   Of course, they have tried some things along those lines, and couldn't get enough attendance at the games to keep leagues in business.   But it would solve two problems at once....letting great football players who are poor students have a chance at the NFL, and Improving our higher education systems free of students who are only there to play sports.   Afterall.......brains in the classroom does not make a good football player.  

I'm sure if you check the number of Hispanic College football players, and the percentage of them that Make it to the NFL, it will be fairly close to the percentage of other races that make it to the NFL

Answer 7

That is the dumbest question that I have read today!! What are you talking about?? Allowed?? Maybe they need to ask their mothers for approval- HAHA- If your gonna ask that lets also go with-

-Shouldent they allow more "black" people in the NHL?

-Shouldent they allow more "French" people in the MLB?

-Shouldent they allow more "white" people in the NBA?

Hopefully you get my point- The NFL chooses their team on talent and ability and on talent and ability ALONE!! The owners in the NFL dont care if your orange with purple spots and green hair as long as you have speed and talent!!That goes for any and every other sport as well!!

Answer 8

Tell this to TE  Tony Gonzales of the KC Chiefs. Face facts. NFL teams would draft a three toed sloth if they thought it would help them win. Race doesn't matter at all

Answer 9

Don't they need to earn roster posts like the other nationalities?

Answer 10

They do, any of them that can run, jump, or swim are already here wearing Dallas cowboy gear.  

Answer 11

White people??????

Answer 12

It's not that their not allowed into the league, but hey, Tony Gonzalez is hispanic

Answer 13

This is stupid. They allow hispanics in the NFL it's just they don't play in the NFL. Plus 2 really great players, Tony Romo, and Tony Gonzalez, are both hispanics. Football is really a hispanic sport. Futbol is a hispanic sport.

Answer 14

do u really think that the NFL denies hispanics to play in the league?

and id say there are probably more african americans in the NFL then whites.  White people dominate the position of qb and center.  The offensive line is mixed, and every other position like WR and RB is mostly black people

Answer 15

Maybe if more of you didn't drop out of HS and went to college and made a team because of your freakish athletic abilities, there would be more of you out there than TG & TR. Come on....this is a very narrow minded question. Wake up. The NFL doesn't care if your skin color is blue. If you can play then they'll sign you up. Then there's the scholarship thing. If your too proud to stay in school and kiss the mans ***....well then....we won't see you out there will we?

Answer 16

the reason is that we dont really get to college and it actually is because of race its not theres no skill is that well many just dont like the nfl loook at the mlb mostly hispanics same as soccer  

Answer 17

Its not a matter of allowing.  Its a matter of who is out there in the talent pool for scouts to go after.    If somebody has the talent and is the right size then it doesn't matter their race ....its can they play.  thats the only thing that matters.......can they play?
