A lot hurt feelings in this thread.

Anything that come out and put black people in a good light. People will try and break their backs to disprove it.


smh. it's defining blackness as running and jumping. so if your not a black athlete or even care about sports than "your not black" in peoples eyes. how are people missing this point?

Michael Johnson is an idiot. If black people were bred to be bigger and stronger then they were also bred to be dumber also. People dont even realize how theyre setting themselves up.

Except that doesnt even make sense.

Its a historical fact that some slave owners bred their strongest slaves together to try and create stronger slave offspring. That isnt arguable. If you dont believe it then go pick up some history books. The only part that is up for debate is if it was widespread enough to affect every current day African American. That i dont believe is true.

Now back to your part that makes absolutely no sense. How could the slave owners breed their slaves to be dumb if there was no education system for slaves in order to determine which ones were smarter than the others? Remember being able to read or write was an immediate death sentence for slaves. So what would the slave owners use to determine which were smarter than the others?

What you left out was the intentional inbreeding done by slave owners to create stronger slaves. They used their strongest males to breed all their females including sisters and cousins which was on going through generations. If youre going to use the argument that blacks are faster simply due to slavery then the same argument can be flipped to explain why were dumber and more prone to violence. It completely ignores the environmental and cultural aspects that come to play. If you go to the ghetto kids their are likely to put more emphasis into sports and entertainment as a meal ticket to a better life. While kids in the burbs will simply look at sports as an extracurricular activity and put more emphasis into education.

1st. Not all of the slave owners were doing inbreeding.

2nd. Like i said my point was about people of African decent being more athletic, not just descendents of slaves. A 6 year old kid outside playing is not playing because he wants to train to be an NBA player and a 6 year old white kid is not focusing on being a doctor.

3rd. So how do you explain football positions. Why are the positions of speed dominated by black people yet the other positions have white people playing them as well? So you saying the white kids who played WR, CB, and RB growing up and in college focused on education and thats why they didnt have what it took to make it to the NFL but the white kids who played LB, OL, DL, and TE didnt focus on education so they made it to the NFL?

Nor were all slave owners breeding slaves like livestock. Black women being raped was very common. Are you going to give white people praise too for mixing their DNA with black people since most slave descendants have european blood?

When that 6 year old kid from the hood gets older hes going to see sports as his meal ticket to a better life compared to the kid from the burbs. Thus hes going to work harder for it.

If youre trying to make the fast twitch vs slow twitch argument then go ahead, but that doesnt have anything to do with slavery.

:snoop:

Archer, you trying to force me to a side im not on. You keep trying to lump me in with the people saying slave breeding is the sole reason for African Americans athleticism when i keep telling your dumb ass im not on that side. I think you may have a reading comprehension problem. If you would read this thread you would see that some people are talking about the slave connection and others are talking about the genetics of the African people as a whole.

My perspective is coming from people of African decent as a whole. That includes Africans, Jamaicans, African Americans, some Latin-Americans, etc.....

Your dumb ass asked why positions of speed are dominated by black athletes. If you want to make a comparison between fast twitched and slow twitched athletes then go ahead. Your question was irrelevant to the discussion at hand.
