Re: A message to all GM's...... I wouldn't mind drafting Dirk, Pau, Brad Miller, Zydrunas, Mehmo Okur, or Darko.But your right, blacks own most major sports except hockey, golf, and auto racing.
Re: A message to all GM's...... White guys can be just as physically strong as black guys if they work out enough. I know more RB's are black but Matt Jones and Kevin Curtis are two good, white recievers who are faster than most black guys in the NFL.
Re: A message to all GM's...... Being just as physically strong and being as ripped and as in good of physical condition are 2 different things.
Re: A message to all GM's...... Black people are more naturally athletic, so they have the advantage in most sports. One player can be alot stronger than another, but if the other is quicker, it really doesn't matter (Shaq is the only exception).
Re: A message to all GM's...... Why couldn't white people be as strong and fast?And where do middle-easterners fall in this?

I hate to bring this up, but it is a theory that seems true: When blacks were slaves, they were super bred, meaning that the biggest and strongest were forced to have many, many kids so those kids can be new slaves. That is actually a very interesting theory, do not know if it is a big cause of most African American success in sports though.Also, has to do with where you grow up. If you grow up in rough neighborhood, chances are you'll focus less on school and more on sports and you'll see that as your chance to get out of the ghetto. With rich white kids, that hunger isn't there, and more focus is on school.
Re: A message to all GM's...... I'm gonna get strong and have a bodybuilder, scary, Russian wife and we're going to make super kids. :rock:
Re: A message to all GM's...... What the guy is saying is perfectally true. Unless it's Adam Morrison, or a big white guy like that (1 in 1 million), black players are generally much more aggresive. Name one white guy today who is "vicious" There are none. The best big white player in the NBA today shoots 20 foot jumpers 80% of the time. Another fact, while it is very sad but true, is that most black players in the NBA are bred in harsh environments. Harsh envoronments demand tough play, and off the court breeds tougher more self confident plays. Add it up, and black players are simply better to have.
Re: A message to all GM's...... Ima gonna go play a pick-up game a Rucker Park. <------Pretend that sign says goodbye......forever.....I'd get killed. Oh, I though of a tough white guy! Joe Klein! I still remember when he wiped his blood all over Malone's jersey years ago.
Re: A message to all GM's...... If you want to play stereotypes, I'd take a white pg over a black one, because they have a higher iq, in fact all whites do over blacks.

No...fact. Just look at Vince Young.
Re: A message to all GM's...... i wanna know how many of you are black. and how many of you are white.lol, seriously.you can't say that.. white post players aren't "aggressive." they might not DUNK over EVERYONE. but they definately can be "AGGRESSIVE."you can't say that every single white post player in the whole nba isn't "aggressive." they can be aggressive.lets take.. big z as an example.he knocked rasheed wallace on his <Censored> the other night. and it wasn't an accident. i think that is considered.. "aggressive."sure. black people are aggressive. but you're saying white people.. aren't.and then you're tring to say you would draft any black post player over any white post player. so you would draft.. erick dampier over dirk nowitzski? you would rather have erick dampier than dirk nowtizski on your team? i thought so.
Re: A message to all GM's...... Which is why I said there a very few exceptions to the rule. And what does it matter how many of us are white and how many are black. Thats totally irrelevant to the point
Re: A message to all GM's...... When you said Big Z was aggressive I stopped reading. Big Z is soft. The guy is 7'3 and can't grab 10 boards a night. How aggressive can he be?
Re: A message to all GM's...... Yeah Z just camps out in the lane and takes up a load of space when he's trying to create his own shots with those soft little hook shots of his...
Re: A message to all GM's...... He did try and get back at Sheed last night for that elbow drop....He's still soft
Re: A message to all GM's...... Saying you wont draft a guy because he is white is like saying you wont hire a guy because he is black. You simply cant say something like that..
Re: A message to all GM's...... Tell me how you saying this is any better than the guy on ESPN a year or two ago criticizing McNabb and black quarterbacks..
Re: A message to all GM's...... Black people just can't be quarterbacks or point guards. The top 2 are white. Jason Kidd and Nash and Peyton Manning and Tom Brady. It's just because white people are a lot smarter and better leaders.
