Do the Olympics finally prove that Race has little to do with athleticism??

That black guy is Mo Farrah and that white guy is Galen Rupp, both are coached by Alberto Salazaar and both are good friends and training partners. Mo Farrah was expected to medal. Galen Rupp while talented has had problems in races. This year he has finally put it all together. He broke the American two mile record earlier this year.

I know you are a troll but the truth about distance running is Kenyans and Ethiopians tanks are bigger. Most start running to and from school at an earlier age. The greatest runner of all-time, Hailie Gelebrassie used to run 6 miles to and from school growing up. By the time these guys hit high school and actually lock into a training program their tank is already larger than any American kid. These guys are running 70-100 miles a week in teen years.

American high school programs rarely crack 50 miles a week. And that number is even lower for the 400M, 100M runners.

Not to mention diet. No cheeto eating, mcdonalds grubbing growing up.

Not to mention running at elevation.

Not to mention that distance running is are their National Sports. You saw what happened when Nigeria played USA in basketball. Exactly they don't play the damn sport. Neither do Kenyans and Ethiopians. It's not of cultural importance to them much like distance running isn't important to us Americans.

the older i get, the more i begin to realize that worst and most dangerous forms of racism don't come in the overt shyt like a republican candidate sayin somethin off the wall and asinine, it comes in subtleties we never take the time out to pay attention to or even question. take the sports industry for example.

i got a lot i'd like to say but i'll try to keep it pretty general to start and expand as needed. first off

remember that we live in country where once, as slaves, we were seen as physically superior, but intellectually inferior to white people
we make up only 12% of the population. thats total, yet we're 60 some odd percent of the nfl, 80% of the league... stop and really think those numbers. the idea that we could be that much more athletic than people who outnumber us 5 times over is just bullshyt
basketball, football (and track) are not the end all be all to athleticism. they're 2 sports. but thats what we're led to believe... the us took first place in the 08 olympics, competing against athletes across with world and it wasn't solely on the backs of black athletes, yet we're the "true athletes"
recognize the fact that the sports world is owned, operated, coached, etc by and large by white people. these are the people who ultimately choose who you watch on tv. what were once all white leagues are now dominated by black men and it began in the midst of a racist, segregated country... you can say its "cuz we're just more athletic" if you want, but i'd like to think we were just exploited as the newest form of minstrel show type attraction. we only dominate in run-based sports (football, basketball, track)
white children are taught that their athletically inferior, and as a result rarely effort into becoming a star player. for them sports are something to do "for fun" while you're in school. black children are taught that by virtue, their skin color makes them a better athlete and now you have a generation funneling their work ethic into the pipe dream of becomin the next kobe or calvin johnson. school is somethin you have to do while workin your way into the league. its nyggas out there that truly see sports as their only way outta the hood...
without realizin it, we've given into the notion that we're intellectually inferior and athletically superior. if someone said the same shyt about how strong and fast and how high a slave could jump in the 1800s it'd be taken as racism, but put a ball in his hands in 2012 and suddenly this is somethin to be embraced... its nothin wrong with bein athletic but there is somethin wrong with accounting it to bein black. not tryna bash on white people at all, just the sports industry
