blacks are better atheltes period
sprinting, long distance running, basketball, football, they do things whites cant do, thats not racism, thats the facts
genes are genes you cant argue it, if you do you are ignorant
blacks are much more prone to glaucoma, hypertension and diabetes. why? because its in their genes

that is ignorant.

Why don't we just go recruit over in African to get these "blacks" to play every sports?

Fact is, its American born "blacks" that are the superior athletes... and yes, its genes.. but WHY.. because we weak ones never made it here.

think before you post.

I doubt the weak ones didn't make it here because the stronger were selected back in Africa. Most of the weaker ones probably died in the atrocious habitat of a slave ship.

the superior long distance runners are all from kenya, thats in africa
if the blacks in africa had the same opportunities to train in specific sports like fb, and basketball, as african americans im sure they would make a big impact on american sports

I was just about to post that.

Kenyans make better long distance runners. But African-Americans make better sprinters (please see my post re: origins of slave trade). Again, people are generalizing.

they have tried that... hakeem... mutumbo.. it works in some cases, but very rarely.

The long distance runners are a diffrent tribe of africans.. long muscle fibers.. slow twitch.. not much mass.. not many of them were brought over to the US as slaves because 1) they wouldn't survive 2) they weren't as strong

Watch Roots. Good series. OJ is in it too with Lavar Burton from 'A Reading Rainbow'.

It said in the extras that Lavar could outrun OJ in one scene in Africa. OJ was older too....

LOL @ the ignorance floating from many in this thread.

It has more to do with location. Again, most of the slaves came from West Africa. If you look at a map, the West Coast of Africa is closer to Europe and the U.S. than to Kenya. Ever heard of the Slave Trade Triangle???
