Are black athetes more athletlic than white athletes?.

[Jim Jeffries]

Would you like to elaborate, or are you just saving face by acting ******ed?

Just this once:

The term Semite means a member of any of various ancient and modern peoples originating in southwestern Asia, including the Akkadians, Canaanites, Phoenicians, Hebrews, and Arabs.

Semite - A member of a group of Semitic-speaking peoples of the Near East and northern Africa, including the Arabs, Arameans, Babylonians, Carthaginians, Ethiopians, Hebrews, and Phoenicians. -

Near Eastern languages came from Africa 10,000 years ago
Investigator: Ene Metspalu
by Laura Spinney

Analysis of thousands of mitochondrial DNA samples has led Estonian archeogeneticists to the origins of Arabic. Ene Metspalu of the Department of Evolutionary Biology at Tartu University and the Estonian Biocentre in Tartu, claims to have evidence that the Arab-Berber languages of the Near and Middle East came out of East Africa around 10,000 years ago. She has found evidence for what may have been the last sizeable migration out of Africa before the slave trade. Genetic markers transmitted through either the maternal or paternal line have been used to trace the great human migrations since **** sapiens emerged in Africa. But attempts to trace the evolution of languages have met with less success, partly because of the impact on languages of untraceable political and economic upheavals. Metspalu and colleagues analyzed inherited variations in a huge number of samples - almost 3000 - of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) taken from natives of the Near East, Middle East and Central Asia, as well as North and East Africa. mtDNA is inherited through the maternal line, and by comparing their data with existing data on European, Indian, Siberian and other Central Asian populations, the researchers were able to create a comprehensive phylogenetic map of maternal lineages diverging from Africa and spreading towards Europe and Asia. Working in collaboration with language specialists, they found that this movement 10,000 years ago, which was probably centred on Ethiopia, could well have been responsible for seeding the Afro-Asiatic language from which all modern Arab-Berber languages are descended. "This language was spoken in Africa 10,000 or 12,000 years ago, "Metspalu told BioMedNet News. "We think it was around that time that carriers brought these Afro-Asiatic languages to the Near East." The language, or its derivatives, later spread much further afield. What could have triggered the movement she can only speculate. One possibility is that increasing desertification was causing famine in Africa and driving hunters further afield in search of animals. Interestingly, the lineages they traced through this 10,000-year-old migration didn't seem to get much further north than modern-day Syria or east of modern-day Iraq. There is no evidence of the lineages in the mtDNA of people from Turkey or Iran, says Metspalu. "We can't understand why this boundary [to the Arab-Berber speaking world] is so sharp," she said. "They came out of Africa, and when they reached Turkey they just stopped." She believes some kind of physical boundary, now vanished, must have impeded them. The same genetic detective work has confirmed archeological evidence that the biggest movement out of Africa occurred around 50,000 years ago - which is when Africans first settled in other continents - and that it originated in a small East African population.

^Now please, stfu. You don't know what you're talking about.

If you really just want to measure just athletic ability disregarding atributes needed in sport like flair skill heart and creativeness then your best bet is to study decatheletes.American sports are way too focused on power.

what's this another race talk?

There were semites that went back down into Africa you fool. You do know that the only black people that NEVER left Africa were the bushmen, and that the rest of them migrated back from Southern India, or are you that ******.

Ass hole, can you read? The original Semites (semitic speakers), came from Africa and not viceversa.

Ignorance. Plenty of Africans never left, the Bushmen are indigenous to south Africa. The world is derived from only 1 east African population. The article I posted records the second biggest migration out of Africa by Black Africans.

and that the rest of them migrated back from Southern India, or are you that ******.

No, but apparently you are.

Keep picking and choosing whatever articles you wish to try and "prove" some kind of point (and disregarding any others), but know this: the ancient Egyptians that created that statue in your avatar were NOT black.

Alot of the black African American's being succesful has to do with the trickling down effect of slavery. The strongest of the strong ****** were the only ones who survived and passed down their genes to others. That's why today's blacks have the good genetics- because their ancestors had to have them.

And I'm only speaking for blacks out here. I don't know about the rest.

Yeah that has to be the case.

Because I do believe that blacks are naturally more athletic and stronger. Except for the white farm boys, but that's the same case of strong genetics from a family history of manual labor.

I guess you never heard of LaDanian Tomlinson, Randy Moss, Champ Bailey, Bryant Westbrook, Terrell Owens, Julius Peppers, Ray Lewis and Ed Reed.

Nowitzki isnt white hes german.

I guess you also never heard of Tim Duncan, Kobe Bryant, LeBron James, Chris Paul and Kevin Garnett.

That is the dumbest comment i have ever seen on this forum.

IN that case:
Parker isn't black, he's French.
