Why are there no white running backs in the SEC

Its a culture thing. There's zero science to prove black people are just naturally faster and what not. Its just became ingrained in our culture. This isn't racist at all, but its also upbringing. A lot of American Americans live in a very poor upbringing and as a result they see sports as an escape and a goal to better their lives. Whereas white people tend and can afford to just go through college without having to receive a sports schlorship. Of course there's whites in the same poor situation as well and blacks that are well off. Obviously. But its a culture thing.

Then Jimmy the Greek was wrong?

In the Glades that's the mindset; escape is unattainable except through sports. The problem in that part of the world is the "parents" and community think the same way and have ingrained it in kids' minds. If you can't get out with sports you're destined to sling rocks on the ave. They've made it a simple either-or scenario.

The African's that originally were sold into slavery to wealthy Anericans were chosen for their physical prowess. They were the most elite physical specimens in Africa. They were brought here against their will. That is why African American males are superior athletes to many of their white counterparts. There are some exceptional white athletes as well but they pale in numbers to the black athletes here.

It's genetics and over time won't matter with the acceptance of biracial relationships. Eventually we will drop the color discussion and focus on the fact that Americans are superior athletes on average to the rest of the world.

Except Jamaican sprinters. Those men and women are absolutely astonishing.

Hey BGV, can you imagine the number of amazing athletes from the muck that never see college from a pathetic parenting culture? Parenting and a lack of funding for mental health might be the crisis facing our great country today.

Of course politicians want to talk about other things.

The stories are never ending. Drugs, teen pregnancies, shootings (kids and/or parents), death by AIDS (mostly parents) etc. The book Muck City, touches on some of these characters who's football careers were derailed. Overall it's a pretty neat read, though it does paint a bleaker picture and over exaggerates the perception of the Glades, than I think really exists. The author, Bryan Mealer, tries to horrify outsiders to the atrocities that take place there IMO. I'm not sure if I'm immune to the "atrocities" because I grew up there or I don't want to see/believe the "atrocities" because I grew up there.

Refresh my memory. When was the last time a white guy won any olympic medal in the 100 meter?

Lol i was talking to my black roommate and he said...

"Boy, we black people can run. We can't throw, sometimes we can't catch, but we sure can run"

That's when we both realized the best black quarterbacks were known for their ability to scramble.

Hmmmmm

And yall wonder why I think race has something to do with the whole Dobbs can't throw agenda around here.

Statements like this EXPOSE the subconscious bias some on here have. No wonder some on here focus so much on the few bad throws Dobbs makes versus his many great throws if you believe all black folks are good for is running.

smh

No sh#t. There are no physiological differences between white and black people. That clown just wanted an excuse to subliminally suggest that black folks are also intellectually inferior because of genetics.

Its the tit for tat game that racists like to play.

You should have a talk with his BLACK roommate who said it. I think they are both wrong, as I pointed out Warren Moon, but no where did they say "all blacks are good for is running."

You know, this thread has the potential to be the epic of the off season if people weren't taking it so serious.

Really? Then go find it. Good luck with that.

Steve Sailer: iSteve: Black v. white physical differences in sports

Blacks have shorter torsos, broader shoulders, smaller ribcages, narrower hips, and longer limbs (with comparative elongation of the distal segments).

Physiological differences between black and white runners during a treadmill marathon. - PubMed - NCBI

The lower VT in the black runners was probably due to their smaller body size. The VThr occurred at a higher percentage VO2max in black than in white runners (82.7%, SD 7.7% vs 75.6%, SD 6.2% respectively) but there were no differences in the VO2max. However, during a 42.2-km marathon run on a treadmill, the black athletes ran at the higher percentage VO2max (76%, SD 7.9% vs 68%, SD 5.3%), RER (0.96, SD 0.07 vs 0.91, SD 0.04) and f (56 breaths min-1, SD 11 vs 47 breaths min-1, SD 10), and at lower VT (78 ml kg-2/3 breath-1, SD 15 vs 85 ml kg-2/3 breath-1, SD 19). The combination of higher f and lower VT resulted in an identical VI.

Sports Are 80 Percent Mental: Racial Physiology Differences Determine Race Performances

in the International Journal of Design and Nature and Ecodynamics, Bejan, and co-authors Edward Jones, a Ph.D. candidate at Cornell University currently teaching at Howard University, and Duke graduate Jordan Charles, argue that the answer lies in athletes' centers of gravity. That center tends to be located higher on the body of blacks than whites. The researchers believe that these differences are not racial, but rather biologica

In a paper published online in the ...erences are not racial, but rather biological

http://link.springer.com/article/10.1007%2FBF00236696

It appeared that the only physiological difference that may account for the superior performance of the black runners was their ability to run at a higher percentage V O 2max max during competition than white runners.

Why are more QBs, OL and kickers white? It's just how we as humans are created. Blacks are generally faster, more athletic players. Racist or not. It's the truth

White folks have a shorter achillles tendon. Learned that in high school health, knew it would come in handy one day.
