Observation I Made While Watching

women's college basketball...there seems to be a higher proportion of white women playing on teams than there are black women playing...but when you look at men's basketball the inverse is apparent...why is that?

White guys can't jump.

But white girls can.

could be...here is one theory i have...black males play it moreso because they have the possibility of making money from it...whereas for women there is not as much of a likelihood for that...but that still does not take in account why would the white women want to play it moreso than the blacks...is it because of after school programs that are plentiful to suburban kids while growing up? black men had the chance to play on the playground and the streets...not so much the chance for black women i would guess...will have to think more about this...did searching for it on the net, but really could not come across anything specifically geared toward my thesis statement

Thin ice guys, just a warning. As long as the conversation stays clean the thread will stay open. First comment that even insinuates racisism and the thread will be close and the offending party locked in the basement until Jack can review.

just a coincidence....nothing about race at all....why does it matter? Just watch the game and enjoy without watching colors, unless you like M and M's

Did anyone see that NCAAW highlight last night where that one girl reached around the other, got her arm caught in between the ball and the other girls body, the second girl leans over while pulling the first girl OVER her back slamming her into the floor. Then the girl who got suplexed gets called for the foul. It was friggin awesome. Some of these girls can throw others around like ragdolls.

NOTE: I cannot actually sit through a whole woman's bball game although many people around here do (lady huskies) I just find the highlights histerical sometimes (dunks are like friggin AMAZING lol).

To stay on topic I beleive it was a black girl throwing a white girl, can't exactly remember though. Not like it matters.

I honestly didn't notice the girls were of different color. A little disturbing that somebody would.
