Michael Johnson says that slave descendants have "athletic genes"

no, basketball players. agility, lateral speed, 35-40 minutes of quick play, epper body strength.

A good point. I was being lazy with word "strength". IMHO, NFL running back are probably the best overall athletes, but of course you can't deny that most of the best shot putters of the world have come from Central and Eastern Europe.

I guess my point is that we shouldn't be afraid of being labeled racist because we choose not to have our analytic scientific points of view muzzled. I mean, for God's sake, we all know that 8 descendants of West Africa will be lining up this August in the 100 meter final in London.

Slaves were bred to be stronger back in the day. America basically practiced eugenics. It's obvious that blacks are genetically superior in sprinting. Of the 76 runners that have broken 10 for the 100, only four are not west african. If only we could all just admit that people who have descended from a high altitude herding culture might be genetically superior at distance running...

The West Africans who were enslaved in the US were the ones who were subjected to selective genetic engineering through breeding. Their descendants are the super-human athletes that we see today.

West Africans who wound up in Brazil immediately started partying. They were not subjected to controlled breeding programs, and we now seem them driving cabs in Manhattan.

because western nations prefer "pure" strength only - bench/'lift/squat

those aren't olympic sports

they shoud be & get rid of ancient/uninteresting weight-lifting

Studies have shown that certain groups of Mongolians have a set of genetic alleles that allow them to survive in ultra-low oxygen environments (>15,000 ft altitude).

We've all heard stories about 16 year old East Africans playing soccer and then start running and run 13:30 a year later. The rest of us simply can't physically do this. I simply can't understand how libtards can deny this.

moron

his was not a breeding example, albeit as bold ruler as his sire, he shouda been a contender

he was a mutation, with a heart nearly twice the size of average thoroughbred discovered at autopsy

his mutation seemed fairly unique as he "lucked" in having the attributes of a HOCM heart without the stretched purkinjes, which usually cause the "drop-dead syndrome" in athletes or loss of elastiscity in myocardium

The libtard platform depends on the rationalization that all material inequality between racial groups is due to environmental factors (racism).

Ancient and uninteresting? I'm going to assume that you are trolling, because usually your posts are more thoughtful. If not, why don't you look up the origin of the olympic games and then you can decide what is an olympic sport. The original events consisted of running various distances and wrestling and boxing.

I'm sure that certain "urban" viewers would find the games more interesting if new events based shows like "bait car" and "ghetto girls" were awarding medals. Medals could be awarded for the longest period of time before the engine gets shut down and doors are locked..."damn, pookie...I axed you if we should do this..."

Which slaves ? Jew are mullatoes who were slaves under the black Egyptians and white Persians. 90% of White Europeans are half-breed Mongol-Whites who were slaves to Beijing. So please be more specific. Thanks.

He didn't mention the percentage who were on drugs that's the biggest influence on who is fastest

Also read John C Calhoun's excellent works. He was VP of the USA and Secty of War. His land is where present day Clemson U exists although he had no part in it's founding. John C Calhoun's thoughts helped found the Confederate States of America and his works served as the philisophical foundation for the great institution of Slavery. Hope this helps.

no

i watch most all sports, but even weightlifting is hardly on satellites & even waiting/watching for post-rezazadeha explosion of weightlifting on satellite past 8y, there has been nothing

it's a dead sport outside ruskie+

powerlifting, with a controlled fed & proper competitions woud be far, far better

& it measures "pure" strength

weight-lifting doesn't

This thread shall likely be deleted soon--not a bad idea, actually--but before it goes, one should point out that almost all of the African slaves who were brought to the Americas were initially enslaved by other Africans--then sold to Europeans.

The societies in Africa were always based on slavery. It was in fact blacks who sold excess black slaves to the Europeans as they had to the Arabs for a thousand years before. Heck, you can still go to parts of Africa and see slavery, like the Arabs selling chained blacks from southern Sudan.

Dr Herb Elliott, doctor to the Jamaican Olympic team, added: ‘Only the most aggressive and fiercest slaves ended up in Jamaica.’

eh ?

i always assumed that the slaves from west africa were the slowest ones - the ones who weren't fast enough to run away from the slavers

Herb Elliot is basically right. I don't know about 'aggressive' but the most physically capable were likely to be sent on to Jamaica for the large plantations there. For other islands, other economies, the selection was different. In Barbados for example (the story goes) that the selection was for general intelligence. Think of the slave trade as one big organisation where the bosses have complete control. Some 'employees' get sent to accounts, some get sent to the warehouse, probably most are average and it doesn't matter where they go.

drivel

biggest plantations are in southern states

try again

And were those British plantations? I think not. Why don't you try again.

if that's the case, why don't Brazilians dominate sprinting.

Only a fraction of West African slaves ended up in the USA.

Because of the melting pot effect in the US,
