Probably true. You would think that height would give advantage to whites (on average white people are taller) . I think that's why Hispanic are non existent in other sports( except baseball) Because they're very short on average
In most sports height is everything

Blacks do in general have longer legs and arms (wingspan or reach) than whites which are beneficial for running (there is not a single white cornerback in American football), boxing/fighting and dunking in basketball. Blacks have an advantage in American football because the modern game has evolved into being played more offensively. If it was still played as it was originally, i.e. more defensive, the question is if they still would have that advantage.

Almost all jockeys seem to be short Hispanics. One changed his name to Mike Smith.

I have a theory on why some can run faster and jump higher. They evolved that way from many generations of running away from and jumping away from wild ferocious African animals. The survivors got to pass on their genes.

There is a lack of diversity in the NFL and NBA. Black Americans are only 13% of the population but are over represented in those sports. Why not have DEI for sports? Include more Whites and Asians.

The only football player I liked was the Denver Broncos Karl Mecklenburg.








I don't like any basketball players. They are all ugly.

I don't watch baseball either. I've been to Mets baseball games.
