    Just watching the American football and was wondering why there are so many black folks on US football teams.

    This also extends to sprinters too. I can't remember the last time a white person won the 100 meters in the Olympics.

    What's going on?

    I don't see many black swimmers or skiers. Better in some fields, but not all. And they suck at ping pong.

    skiing and swimming are not athlete sports.

    In other there are less black people in basketball and the NBA than in the past.

    It's time to admit they are the superior race!;)

    They knew they had to be faster than the white man.
