What a joke. I would bet that 50% of Black-Americans have no idea that Africa is a continent and not a country. Moreover, if you grew up in Botswana or Namibia and moved to the US and became a citizen, then you earn the name African-American. If your grandparents were born here and your parents were born here, then that makes you simply an American...or Black-American if you must make a distinction. In fact, I wonder how many Black-Americans who claim to be "African-Americans" can even find Africa on an atlas. Anyway, RANT OVER. Signed, Proud Western-European-American
If you guys are buying that crap, then you're racists. You can't try to justify blacks being better because they're black. With all the damn racists in this world, don't you think a racist white scientist would have proved that CRAP with scientific evidence by now? The reason there are more black athletes is due to socio-economic reasons. If you can't pay to go to college, and you were too damn poor to devote your brain to college-level classes because you were selling crack or working in a damn McDonalds for minimum wage, there's only ONE other option---sports. I've lived in ALOT of other countries during my short life and there's ONE thing that's ALWAYS true no matter where you go in this screwe-up world. Poor people are always discriminated against no matter the color of their skin. There's more crime, more disease, more unwed mothers, less education,,,,and last but not least, BETTER athletes. So guys,,,,,don't support racist CRAP! Think that way and the racism NEVER ends, it continues with the next set of kids people with this belief rear. SEEYA, -Charlie :geauxtige
Is Nothingfaced still on this board??? A Man is A Man. Skin color is a genectic pigmentation, nothing more. Social pressures are greater on the poorer segements to succede, to be a "man" than on the more effluent upper class. tigerb8
I'm buying, and I am white, but I'm not racist. Believing that a race of people, overall, can be genetically different from another race of people isn't racist! I wouldn't even consider a black person racist if he believes that his race, generally, can run faster, jump higher, etc., than my race. It's true! I read somewhere a long time ago that a study was done, and the conclusion included the statement that those of African descent have a bigger muscle or tendon (achilles?) or something in the legs, which accounts in large part for theie athletic prowess in relation to whites. I also believe whites are genetically better athletes than the Asian race, for the most part. Probably has something to do with the environment in some way. Peoples evolve and adapt to their environment! Nothing racist about it. Seems pretty clear cut to me. All of this is not to say that any race is superior, overall, to any other race.
