| Hey guys, so I was thinking lately about how some ethnicities seem to be better at some sports. For example, Hispanic (Dominicans/Pueter Ricans) seem to be better at baseball than they are any other sport. Europeans/Other Spaniards seem to be better in Soccer/Football. African Americans seem to be better at basketball, and Caucasian/African Americans seem to be better at football.
Have you guys noticed this? I'm not trying to stereotype or anything but it seems that that usually happens. To be honest, I wish I had stuck with baseball and done soccer too. If you were wondering, I'm 50 % pueter rican/ 25% german/ 24% polish/ 1% everything else.
And...
100% American =) | |

| African-americans are usually better at Basketball because they have longer arms and legs. This is because that way their bodies were(and are) better adapted to high temperatures such as the ones on Africa. Their bones are also a bit more dense, thus making them worse swimmers | |
