NFL officially now looking into Raiders’ head coach hiring process and whether they violated the Rooney Rule, per league official.

In 2003, the NFL fined the Detroit Lions $200,000 for failure to interview African-American candidates for the team's vacant head coaching job. After Marty Mornhinweg was fired, the Lions immediately hired former San Francisco 49ers head coach Steve Mariucci (a native of the Upper Peninsula of Michigan) to replace him without interviewing any other candidates. The Lions claimed they attempted to interview other candidates but that the African-American candidates withdrew from interviews, believing Mariucci's hiring was inevitable.[18]

I am not opposed to the rule, although if the league decides to enforce some violation of it in this instance it's clear that such an action would simply be to spite the Raiders, and not to follow the intent of the rule.

Easily my favorite NFL team
