ask yourself why there are not more/better blk athletes in sports like hockey?? money, money, environment…
regarding USA:most white people, most athletes black:your conclusion—better athletes…and,ok, but in university , reasearch and so on, even though blacks represents 15% or more of the population, the % is very
low…your conclusion should be that blacks do not have the genes to study,…ythink about it…
btw, the first of the 3 youtube,the white guy is insane, never seen anything like this in a dunk contest, anylevel…how tall is he…
Here are titles or records held by whites
Out of the 44 World Records in the IPF (International Power lifting Federation) in the Open Men’s category. Only 2 of them are held by a black man.

Out of the 19 World Records in the IWF (International Weight lifting Federation) in the Open Men’s category. I don’t believe any of the records are held by a black man.

Nearly double the gold medals in the “Athletic events”. The exact thing you were claiming black people to be, “better athletes”. Get over it man. I didn’t even get into all the other events that whites commonly dominate blacks in, I tried to make this fair. You are probably just surrounding yourself in sports and events that blacks are currently doing well in, NFL, NBA, 100m 200m sprints. Wake up! No race is better.
how did you come to this conclusion that blk doesn’t have the genes to study. genes don’t have anything to do with studying. your conclusion should be, given the right environment blks can achieve anything.
what r u talking about?? im not even talking about world class athletes, take 10 white athletes from subs who parents have money to send them to all these camps and schools and take 10 blk athletes from the hood and watch what happen. who cares about powerlifters! lol
Haha, your molding this experiment of yours to help your argument. Fine, if both sets of 10 kids are equally trained and equally motivated, they should perform equally the majority of the time. And why do you have to throw in white boys with rich parents, and black boys from the hood, that’s just stupid.
just like the guy above said that blks dont have genes to study, thats what white america think about blk people. see thats the thing if u told a blk athlete he have to train 2hrs a day he would the white kid would train hour bc he know if he dont make it his dad has friends on wall street that can get him a job and he can still make mil. by the way i didnt say rich, i said has money to send them to camps etc.
So your saying a young black athlete can be more motivate in todays America, I can understand that part of your argument. I just don’t agree with taking two completely untrained white and black kids, or two fully trained white and black kids, and the black kid will be on top athletically, if all circumstances are the same, white and black athletes are equal.
i just dont see how you can say its equal btw the two, list way. look at div 1 sports, if it was equal there would be more whites.
You will NEVER answer the race debate - way too many variables involved.
Ellis Cashmore has a chapter in his book named: Behind the points, how black sport performers are made. Very interesting reading for an open mind!
O geezus christ you make it seem like every damn white kid is living in a mansion doing nothing waiting for his rich parents to give him a job, while every black kid is living on the streets working their ass off, come on now.
If it has to do with being economically depressed well then hispanics will be practicing 3 hrs blacks 2hrs whites 1 hr and well asians wouldnt practice at all
My butler says you’re all crazy.
Is your butler black or white?
haha
just dont see how you can say its equal btw the two, list way. look at div 1 sports, if it was equal there would be more whites.
Well maybe you should look then because in 2005 62.2% of division 1 male athletes were white and 70.5% of female athletes.
Taken from the NCAA website
And if the black athletes are working out 2hrs and the white athletes only one because there daddy will get them a job, that doesnt make the black athletes look to athletic
come on now stop stretching the issue. this would be like saying president bush only got into Yale law school bc of his parents, his parents gave him that extra advantage over more qualified kids etc.
so you are familiar with his grades and the grades of the other applicants, along with the standards?
lol. watch the news its public knowledge. even the president said he wasnt a great student C+ at best.
I don’t recall Bush ever saying he was a C student in high school and his SAT, if I recall, was higher than Gore’s and not reflective of a C student in high school. C’s @ an elite college is another story…
http://www.answers.google.com/answers/threadview?id=292960
There that pretty much answers everything, I know its yahoo answers, but o well it has a lot of good info.
C+ at Yale, i wouldnt mind getting that.
1206 SAT which is roughly 125-130 IQ about mid road for a president.
Probably as high or higher than a lot of people on here based on the bell curve.
lol if you get a 3.0 @ an elite school (top 20), you can at least get a look at many top financial firms… morgan stanley, goldman sachs, etc. That’s with absolutely no connections and having no well-known family name… Tie that in with modern grade inflation, I don’t think a C+ back then is all that bad. Not all-star, but not bad. Should I mention one of the best economists in the world right now barely passed calculus and got a 2 on his AP calc test?
