Wtf? NFL on record in legal filings stating that "race norming" forces them to apply lower standards for black men?

Could it be due to the fact that many football players at that level came up through the hardest neighborhoods and school districts in the US? They were treated like rock stars and even teachers helped them through class even though the kid wasn’t even there.

That being said. No one learns without needing to learn. You can’t force a classical education on anyone. The harder you force it, the harder the resistance.

Or? Are they saying a genetic crossroads developed in logic in the brains of sub African hominoids?

The NFL's dementia testing evaluates a person's function in two dozen skills that fall under five sections: complex attention/processing speed; executive functioning; language; learning and memory; and visual perception. A player must show a marked decline in at least two of them to get an award.

In an example shared with The Associated Press, one player's raw score of 19 for "letter-number sequencing" in the processing section was adjusted using "race-norming" and became 42 for whites and 46 for Blacks.

One, longtime, source of absolute truth that usually doesn't agree with narratives, is insurance payouts.

They have some of the best and most accurate data, WHY? Because it's all about the money and they don't have time for feels or any of that nonsense.

Insurance is probably more accurate with their data.

Because they have private money(accountability) instead of the governments lack of accountability.

How they are conducting what should be more of a neurologist and patient medical history is thrown out for some standardized test that says they can't lose as much because they did not have it in the first place....

Where are the players union protesting this ? these are their predecessors in football. actual racism being applied because of money.

Sounds like a full neurologist exam doesn't matter nor his experience.. the computer said so. The algorithm was made by man and that is there majority race of those still alive.

But as concerns about race-norming grew — and with the racial unrest of 2020 still simmering — Brody in April opened the door to changing the practice when she ordered lawyers for the league and the players back to the table to work out an agreement. (<50%)

Federal judge forces more "conversations about race" that can go only one way, regardless of the evidence. So what else is new?

Well it makes sense. But they don't even HAVE to do that. Surely there's a record of those veterans' Wonderlic test results from their pre-draft combine? It's basically a streamlined IQ test. They could just go by that. How does your current Wonderlic score compare to your pre-NFL Wonderlic score. If someone declines more than X% then they qualify. Simple. And then they are only comparing each claimant TO THEMSELVES, rather than along racial lines.

It is true. Unfortunately, blacks are the lower of the three races mentally. But, they are stronger physically. (That extra testosterone is also why they are more violent.)


If they were equally mentally and superior physically, they would be the superior race.

The left literally hates whites for being average physically and average mentally.

Why would the NFL want to prove the sport hurts players. It is to say it isn't as bad and they have the proof, plus they do not have to pay out as much. That is it plain and simple.
I have a TBI; I am still very smart. now when a neurologist and psychiatrists have rated me for the VA. there are are a battery of tests. most of the questions are the same stated different. to see if you are consistent. it takes over 300 to get a read. Also brain scans, exams, many visits and medications; other systems affected by my brain injury including temp control, heartrate, breathrate, gut issues, seizures, and much more. These people are human lie detectors/ and experts at rating people in their fields. They listen to their opinions. My IQ has nothing to do with all my problems. I am a smart soul in a fucked body.

So why can't they listen to specialists and rate them on their condition. not an IQ test ? it doesn't make sense to rate it that way.
