    The sports just have put more of a focus on pure athleticism (speed, power, jumping, quickness, hand/eye coordiantion, etc). And the white athlete is having a tough time competing with the black and latino athlete.

    The first question is "what's his 40 time?".... speed is just so much more valued today.
    I concur, do people realize how rare it is for an NFL player to run 40 yards it is in a straight line during an actual football game. Though tenths of a second mean millions of dollars on your contract. The world works in myseterious ways.

      Man......... honestly I'm not sure if you guys are American but this site is obsessed with race..... these topics are boring. Not to piss you off but, does it matter? No. It only matters to people who need some form of justification race wise for some ridiculous reason. If that's what you notice first as opposed to looking at these men as people...... you are really missing out on the big picture. Also look up and read The Human genomics project you would be surprised! Race is a socially constructed ideology and not rooted in fact, which means there is no such thing! There are cultures.... ahh....

      I dunno what to say because this is a constant CONSTANT topic. It doesn't matter.... why not look at why certain cultural groups are not as significant in the sport? Maybe American boxers are a dying breed? I dunno.

      This topic disturbs me because it seems so needed and and an unhealthy obsession. I hope you don't think I'm ripen on you but man this topic is so dun.
