Absurd NFL Coaches Interview Policy

The Rams want Jim Haslett to be their coach.

They would like to sign him and pay him.

They can’t.

Haslett is 2-0 but must remain the “interim” coach so that in the off-season the Rams can follow league guidelines and interview minority candidates.

Who do you suppose they will wind up selecting?  That’s right – Jim Haslett.

So why insult other men by making them go through a process they can’t win?  I understand the goal, but this seems silly.
