Okay, so complete the circle. Blacks are faster, but fast white players are discriminated against because they are white. You can say all the parts, but have some apprehension about putting it together.

The amount of "discrimination" whites face does not amount to a hill of beans. If there were great numbers of whites not getting their due in the form of athletic scholarships because of their color, it would be a huge, widely discussed issue.

I brought this up because I have read a number of recent articles and read comments by readers leading me to believe there is a body of white people who really believe that there are thousands of excellent white athletes whose careers are derailed because they're discriminated against.

There aren't. The athletic gap between whites and blacks necessary for success in sports that value running speed is substantial.
