There is athleticism in soccer and tennis...
and i can see with my sons... lets just say one is great at soccer and is a great swimmer. (nikka rides on a skateboard all day too).. I'm not gonna say what race is mom is to avoid controversy, lol...
but lets just say my other sons seem like they will be great at football...
we try not to push these assumptions on them.. maybe it's parents and culture fault tho.
blackking eh?Slaves weren't bred for endurance in terms of running long ass distances, in fact that's counter intuitive to a trait you'd want a slave to have. But BIIIIG.. fuk yeah we know they bread big with big to make big it's not like we're making that up.
Culture does play a role in it as well as people who are predisposed to excelling at a certain thing tend to gravitate towards that thing...that just makes good sense to do what you're naturally gifted at.
SIZE is more prohibitive in the NFL and NBA than in damn near any sports.
Good sports breakdown:
Genetics - 80%
Culture - 10%
Attitude - 100%
Shoes - 10%

but back in my days i remember getting some nice studs and was stylin on niccas. and they would look at me like 
on how i'd changed overtnight but i never told them it was the shoes..even though i was a beast, i gave up on sports to concentrate more on academics. it's not like i'd make it pro and i hated dealing with coaches bullshyt.
plus culturally in our family we're all more nerds than sportsmen even though we're built to be sportsmen.
It opens up the "Blacks are genetically less intelligent" argument. 'Cism science.

Being intelligent is a learned before via education, you can teach someone to make them smart.
You can't turn a 5'8 person with a small frame into Lebron James, only good breeding can do that.

i just said latinos with heavy euro or african ancestry. most successful latino boxers are mestizo or ricans, not mayans or navajoMexicans runs boxing though
the biggest mexican boxer right now is a pale red head, breh
shoes do matter.. i tell my secrets after i don't need them. but everyone now probably has the same tech.

shoes with the right grip/studds give you that extra
your brain can cook some shyt but your legs wont necessarily execute the moves.

because we see the same populations excelling at different sports over the passage of time.
also because america has just as much, if not more talent pools to draw great soccer players from than the smaller, more homogenous countries that have more legendary players, and yet we dont. so genes are totally irrelevant as to why we are not great at soccer.

Sports culture in geographic areas it transends race imo
