I wonder if more racial disparities are going to be created now that black players are going to handled with kid gloves? Only time will tell.
I don't think anyone will be treated with kid gloves. I expect that the same goals and expectations will continue from before. frankly, to do otherwise is foolish. I think there with be more acceptable paths to reach those goals rather than one path that must be chosen by the entire team without exception. It sounds like the consequences will be less punitive and more connected to how that choice is preventing progress towards this goal.
