Does anybody find it odd that the main sports that are linked to a caste system in America, such as basketball and football, are only contested in America? If we played soccer, rugby, and hockey like the rest of he world, with a little bit of leftovers in tack and field, swimming, gymnastics, weightlifting, tennis, extreme sports, and motor sports, then the caste system would be extremely obvious in my opinion. If we ever tried to put out an all-black team, they would just suck horribly! I find this way too convenient to be pure coincidence. I kindof wish that we could switch over to more univerally contested sports, so that it would become blindingly obvious how much better the white athletes really are.

In europe less then 0.3 % of the population plays basketball,i don't even have 1 friend who is member of a basketball team.But USA have Trouble with winning against Spain(barrely usa won) or even Greece with 11 million people and less then 0.3 % is active player.If USA uses not only 13% of their population for their national team they would win much easier.

Yes,I think if America would play the same sports as europeans and would still show the matches on T.V.( so not like basteball which is ignored because whites do great)it would difficult to keep the caste system.

Wow I had no idea that that little people in Europe play basketball. It kind of makes the US performance quite pathetic, especially with our poulation. But when you realize that we use 13% of our own population, maybe less because some Europeans and Canadians are allowed, it suddenly makes more sense.

Kindof makes me want to move to Ireland.
