Football is the most played sport world-wide. Of course they try those sports, there are kids in africa running around in football shirts playing football with no food on the table.
Also I'd like to point out that the NFL is only popular/played in America, blacks make up 65% of the players against the physically weakest caucasians.
Also check en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_current_world_boxing_champions, over half the belt holders are caucasian. Generally Eastern Europeans though.Last edited by 2012QualityPost; 01-11-2012 at 07:30 PM.

To underscore the effectiveness of these movements, consider that in the most basic measure of raw athletic ability—the vertical jump—Olympic weightlifters excel above all others. "When I worked at the Olympic Training Center in Colorado Springs, we measured vertical jumps of athletes in nearly every sport," says Michael Stone, Ph.D., a professor of exercise science at Eastern Tennessee State University. " And Olympic weightlifters had higher average jumps than all other groups—basketball players, gymnasts, sprinters, everybody."
Another important benefit of Olympic weightlifting is it teaches the body to fire all the muscle fibers at once; to explode in a sense (not literally). An 8 week study was done showing the capability of the Olympic lifts to improve sport performance and vertical jump ability. A study was performed and a group of lifters did various Olympic lifts (High pulls, Power Clean, and Clean and Jerk), and were compared to a group using vertical jump exercises (Single and Double Leg Hurdles Hops, Alternated Single-leg Hurdle Hops, etc) and after the 8 weeks of training the Olympic weightlifting group had significantly increased their 10 meter sprint speed and their standing jump over the control group using standard vertical jump exercises (Tricoli). Similarly a 15 week study was also performed using football players and compared a powerlifting program to an Olympic weightlifting program for athletic performance. After the 15 week study was over the Olympic weightlifting group had a significant improvement in the vertical jump and 40 meter sprint over the powerlifting group (Hoffman JR). Clearly there are athletic benefits that come from incorporating weightlifting into a sport training program and similarly Olympic weightlifters are also known for developing great athletic ability.
Pound for pound, Olympic weightlifters have a greater level of speed-strength than any other class of athletes in all of sport. This fact was made very clear during a massive scientific expedition carried out on the athletes at the Mexico City Olympics in 1964. Sports scientists found that Olympic lifters were able to both vertical jump higher than any class of athletes (including the high jumpers), and run a 25 yard dash faster than any class of athletes (including the sprinters).

Im mixed so I don't see how Im being impartial or racist here but srsly strength and power go to the lifter but those aren't traits of true athleticism. I can't tell you the amount of fat ****s I see in the gym who can bench 400lbs but its not that impressive when they weigh 350. The 2012er is really trying to tell me that olympic lifters can jump higher and run faster than one of the best athletes in the world.
