Since he's being paid 3.5 million a year, I guess if he doesn't want to live by his bosses rules he can work somewhere else? And coach entertainers there?

Is that now a commandment at the typical workplace?
This idea of watching what you say in public, as it will reflect on your reputation, employer and business is NOT new. Especially for a figure in the public eye as this man is.
What is new, is there are so many opportunities for people to blab every thought that crosses their mind, in a very public way, and not as much ability to shut their traps.
Spoken like a true fascist. What the guy said was not a lie. It was not slander. It was not defamation. It was fact. Look at the economic impact and cost in lives of the two events. No comparison. And since I don't believe government is God, one riot is no better than the other. Whether it is a peasant lady being ran through with a rapier or Marie Antoinette being beheaded, a riot is a riot. Damage is damage. Life lost or ruined is life lost or ruined. Royalty or not. And it saddens me a lot more that some black lady in the hood had her only livelihood burned to the ground than it does that dopey AOC had to hide under her desk and wet herself as a bunch of idiots were taking selfies outside her door.

It is not about his “bosses rules”. It is that the Coach in question has the wrong political think.
This is what the head coach said:
“Words have consequences and his words hurt a lot of people in our community. I want to make it clear that our organization will not tolerate any equivalency between those who demanded justice in the wake of George Floyd’s murder and the actions of those on Jan. 6 who sought to topple our government.”
We are in a parallel situation to the early years of Nazi control in Germany. The dems are the SA and SS. You stray from the party line and you might just find yourself dead. At the very least, ruined and ostracized.
And why are the Republican politicians just sitting back and letting this happen for decades now?
It took a Trump to get republicans energized and hopeful again for saving this country, but
McConnell does nothing and there’s only a handful of conservatives in Congress courageous enough and actually trying to save this country….

I think you don't know what a "fact" is.
Saying the insurrection on Jan 6 is a "dust up" is deeply offensive to those who know the truth and care about our system of government. And it isn't a "fact". It's an opinion, and a divisive one.
I'm a very firm supporter of the 1st Amendment. In that you are free to speak your mind, express your thoughts, and be free of criminal charges from the government.
That doesn't mean your employer can't instruct you how to conduct yourself in public, when you are a public figure for the organization.

The problem, according to many news reports, is not that he called Jan 6th a “dust up”, but that he pointed out the obvious, that the George Floyd riots were NOT peaceful, despite being called peaceful by the media.
Jack del Rio is refusing to bow at the alter of St. George Floyd and BLM. They are worried he is going to upset the black players.

Agreed-
Liberals are the new Nazis.
The problem is that the rank and file democrats are too stupid to see that they are consenting to a totalitarian regime that will limit the freedom and prosperity of EVERYONE. Somehow liberals think they will be spared the broad, idiotic blade of liberalism.
The big difference between the Nazis and the dems is that the Nazis had a dynamic leader who mesmerized Germany. Biden is universally hated by EVERYONE (except maybe the 20% hardcore leftists) and has no chance in gaining further favor or power. As a matter of fact, the democrat cupboard is bare for new political leaders- they are either too old, too corrupt, or just plain insane.
