Taysom Hill. Steve Young. Hey look white Mormons got the elusive gene. Looking forward to a post racial society where it truly doesn't matter.
The fact that so many like Mahomes can't be placed in a monolithic racial category helps. I know Pat has talked about historic inopportunity for black quarterbacks, and I appreciate that he wants to help eliminate any vestiges of that legacy |

The sports blacks dominate are typically sports that don't cost much money to get into and play at a young age. Football is free anywhere you can find a place to run and throw that is mowed. Most city parks and schools have basketball goals. Baseball requires fields and expensive equipment, same with hockey. Swimming requires a pool and team fees. Many black athletes, not all, but many, come from economically disadvantaged homes. It makes sense that they will spend their childhood entering into sports that they are able to. There are plenty of super fast white guys. However if you have them playing baseball, soccer, swimming, tennis, hockey, etc. at a young age, they don't end up playing football or running track. Also, as to body types, some of that is sports dictated. Look at a sprinter, look at a swimmer, look at a marathoner, etc. They have to have a certain body type to excel in those sports. Not always, but more often than not. A 6'10" black dude is probably going to see more success on the basketball court as a youngster than he is at most other sports, as it gives him the biggest advantage. In other words, you can't compare athletes across sports. Was Wayne Gretzky a better or worse athlete than Russell Wilson? You can't compare them, so quit trying. |
