Why are so many people too dumb to realise that black people are more athletic than white people on average?

I am white and I am going to go crazy the next time someone says that white people are as atheltic as black people. Yes there are many very athletic white people, but black people are more athletic ON AVERAGE.





Black people make up 13% of the population, yet they dominate sports.





You very rarely see white people in 100m final in Olympics.





Most of the great boxing legends are black - Ali, Tyson, Sugar Ray Robinson, Sugar Ray Leonard, Marvin Hagler, Floyd Mayweather etc.





Chuck Liddell, the former UFC light heavyweitht champion, was beaten by a black guy, Quintenn Jackson.





How can a racial group that only makes up 13% of the USA population be so dominant in sports? There is only one answer - Black people are genetically much more athletic than black people ON AVERAGE.

its all about the money





I can tell you for a certainity why there are more black athletes notice primarily basketball and football... baseball would be hispanic so read carefully





It happens between high school and college...





Recruiters and colleges are aware that they are only allowed so much money for scholarships and recruiting... also notice that the majority of athletes in college are on scholarships...





the thing is that most blacks are in poverty in this country... the majority of blacks would qualify for almost all grants the federal and state governments issue for students





so lets pretend that you as a recruiter from lets say Florida are going to recruit and you have a choice between giving a good white player a scholarship for 10,000 because he doesn't qualify for grants from the government or the same level of talent in a black player a scholarship for 3,000 because he will qualify for the other funds from the government to pay his tuition....





so you would be getting 3 poor black athletes for the same price as 1 white athlete of equal talent as the one... this allows you to give out more scholarships for the same amount of money





this primarily happens in football and basketball... baseball recruits from different venues...besides college





so as a white man unless you are EXTREMELY talented or have the money to pay for school you are probably not going to get a scholarship...





if you do not think so... go get a list of scholarships and notice at any division 1 college... they are public record if the school is a state school... you will see that the majority of scholarships are for blacks...





it is pure economics... if you check the backgrounds of the majority of whites in the NFL or NBA they would probably be from poor backgrounds as well on average... more the NFL than the NBA but then there rosters have more people





the only players outside of this reasoning would be


Extremely proven talents


Legacy players who have family members with prior experience the not what you know but who you know people
Reply:You cannot judge someones ability by their race lol. Report It

Reply:I'm not disagreeing. Everyone knows black men are stronger and more athletic.
Reply:I'm black and I don't know if I buy that. For one, it lends itself to the argument: "Why are so many people too dumb to realise that White people are more intelligent than Black people on average?" ...like FunnyGuybabba's alluding to above...





Secondly, just because you see more Black athletes doesn't in any way mean we are naturally more athletic. One seems to flow logically from the other, but it is not necessarily true. Could tracking be a factor here? How about poverty? Perhaps the lack of other options (or what seems to be the lack of options to some)?





Lastly, I read an article in a magazine about how the Boston Celtics used to be made up of White Jewish guys in the 1940s. It was sort of a joke back then...a group of Jewish guys calling themselves Celts...Not much unlike the way that nurses used to be primarily men and now when I (and prpobably most everyone else) think of nurses, I automatically think of women. Is it because women are better caregivers? Maybe but largely it's because men went off to war and women were the ones left to do the job.





Anyway, I forget why times changed in the sports world. If I find that article, I'll send you a link.





Oh, and I can't play sports worth a darn. Well, at age 28 I got into karate but that's another thing...
Reply:Black people have more fast twitch muscle fibers than caucasians. Some people believe it's from the breeding that was done in the slavery days when the slave masters would pair the strongest man and woman slave to produce the strongest offspring capable of doing more work in the fields. Others think it has a more genetic reason such as having to be more agile relying on physical ability to hunt down prey in Africa in contrast to the caucasians who used farming and inventions to acquire their food.





Neither race is "better" than another and to suggest that will simply open you up to rebuttal claims like the previous poster said about there being no black inventors, or philosophers for that matter.





As far as Liddell goes, race didn't make a lick of difference, if you look at the majority of UFC fighters, they're white.
Reply:Its true and its brave of you as a white person to admit that....





Most whites don't want to admit on average black people are on average are more, strong, athletic, have bigger penis's and are physically superior basically...





black people are good music pioneers, are great dancers, have great style and coolness and define what is cool ( If a black person does it it mus be cool).





i guess its just a way of keeping black people down by saying we aren't or saying we are animals.....





only thing black people are failing at is education and also people find very dark skinned blacks intimidating........





White guys use their brains more though i hate to say it...





it is true and "GreenGrasshopper" above me is just afraid of saying we are physically superior because he doesn't want to be labeled uninteligent....





By the way i am not racist.........
Reply:It has been proven that most black people and Africans actually have longer legs, making them superior runners. I don't know why so many people are afraid of realizing that, while we have MANY things that make us the same, we also have things that make us different.





I think they are probably scared of having to admit that they are just not as capable of things others can do. I'm sure you could find something that every single race, in general, does better than the rest. Just look at the great inventors of the last 300 years. Usually it's a white guy.
