There are whites out there in board rooms and running family businesses who could have been NBA all-stars if they'd dedicated their lives to it from a young age

So all it takes is dedication to be a great athlete? A sports publication recently listed their 2005 high school football All-American team. Out of the 22 first teamers pictured, 19 were black. Considering that the overwhelming majority of high school football players in the country are white, this is quite amazing.
Your theory that blacks dominate because they are driven to do so just doesn't hold. Every white kid in Texas and Pennsylvania and many other places grow up dreaming to play in the NFL or at least at a major college. Being a football star makes one a God in many of these places. Those kids work year around at it and are extremely driven. Why don't they make it in the NFL, while the black kids do, if all it takes it dedication to the sport?
There are 64 starting cornerbacks in the NFL..all are black. I have been following the NFL for about 15 years, the only white starting cornerback I can remember is Jason Sehorn. Do you really believe there isn't a biological reason behind that? Do coaches discriminate against white cornerbacks for some reason? Or could it be that white players don't have the physical tools to play that position?
