I think you are making too much fuss about it, simply because basketball happens to be a very important sport in USA. In Europe, it is a popular school/recreative sport, but I doubt it is the sport number one in any other country except Lithuania (or perhaps Greece?). No wonder, because it is a...

Blacks will be always overrepresented in any sport in racially mixed communities, because until the age of 14-15 years they are 2-3 cm taller than their white peers and more mature. When whites overgrow them in late teens, it is often too late.

The comments below the video say that the NFL numbers are inflated. I would agree with this.

The performances in the broad jump are much more believable, by the way. 11 feet=335 cm is lower than in athletes of elite world's calibre. And I must correct my data: Michael Jordan achieved 91.3 cm in the vertical jump and 116 cm in the vertical jump with a run-up.

Correct me, if I am wrong, please, I know almost nothing about American football and NFL, and I am not interested in this sport either - but one thing really astounded me: http://www.nfl.com/combine/top-performers?tabIndex=2 The data of vertical leap are so incredible that they look very fishy...

"If the all-black French team played well or not, it doesnt take away from the fact that theres some kind of 'system of preference' going on in France (and England). 80% of its players are black in a majority white country. Im sure if in a black country with a small minority of whites...

I know the page, but I have no idea, if the data are reliable. The last info on Dutch height I have gives 184 cm for young males and 181 cm for young females.

The Dutch have a perfect height (184 cm), quite long legs (trunk/height ratio 51.5%) and their body build is reasonably slender. At least 20% young Dutch possess a height of 190 cm or more. In contrast, in Germany it is ca. 8%, which means that 15 milion Dutch can match 37.5 million Germans in...

The studies are very good and give a good idea about the muscular development. However, Chinese are not the heaviest Mongoloids. And it also depends on, if they come from the north or the south. Koreans, Japanese, Mongols or North Chinese are comparable to Central Europeans, while Thais...

The stats are pointless anyway, because what we today in Europe see on track is 3rd athletic league. The interest in athletics has been very small during the last 2-3 decades and field events stay in the hands of whites only because other people are too terrible in it.

This is not fully correct. There exists a wide range of physiques among Caucasians. In fact, West Europeans represent one of the slimmest extremes (together with Northwest Africans and South Asians), while East Euros and Near Easterners are the most robust humans on Earth (after Pacific...

"of course social comes into play but in holland we have only very thin % of the dutch does athletics( and you can't choose sports with school)and you get only money when you have started good results, but mostly not enough money that you can live from it that is only when you're world...

"sub 10 in the 100 meter: 70 blacks, 2mixed, 1 whit" Who is the second "mixed" sprinter besides Johnson? Fredericks?

"there is no difference in running between west-east euros" Yes, there is. You can look at all-time lists and you will have a hard time to find an East European in distances longer than 1500 m. The vast majority of top Europeans in the range between 800 m-Marathon have been of West European or...
