 As the NFL is prepared  stanley cup to crown a champion Sunday night during Super Bowl LVI in Los Angeles, it is mired in a lawsuit over equal stanley cup  representation in the coaching ranks. There is a dearth of Black coaches, while African-Americans make up about 70% of NFL players.There was a time when Black people were kept out of the league altogether mdash; until four men changed the face of the game.That long-forgotten part of the NFL s history is the subject of a new book,  The Forgotten First,  which looks at the lives of Kenny Washington, Woody Strode, Marion Motley and Bill Willis. Former NFL player Keyshawn Johnson and award-winning NFL columnist Bob Glauber co-wrote the book to tell the story of the four men, who broke the NFL s color barrier.                                         Despite being an integrated league at its founding, there were no Black players in the NFL from 1933-1945.  There was basically a gentleman s agreement that there would be not Black players in the N stanley cup FL,  Glauber told CBS News  Dana Jacobson.  Washington s owner, George Preston Marshall, probably expressed it most outwardly that he did not want Black players on his team. ... Other owners went along with it.         That changed when the Cleveland Rams decided to move to Los Angeles and wanted to use the publicly funded Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum.

Yeah, great.  Lhaq Stunning photo shows paddleboarder s extremely close encounter with a whale in Massachusetts
