Ok and this is fine, but if someone made a comment about the OBVIOUS superior intellectual performance by whites it would be racist. Argh. Our society is sick.
Some whites have superior intellect. So do some blacks. Most people of either race are not very bright at all. But, when it comes to athletes, I don't think that you can make that point. Especially in baseball which has a lower percentage of black players than society in general, but more that its share of blacks who are considered "smart" players. Admittedly, "smart" for a baseball player is not saying much.
