      Because they have to compete with blacks who are much, much better than they are.

        Yeah, I don't think that many white kids dream of being an MBA degree when they grow up.

          Ronaldo and other Brazilian soccer players of his era are better known than most in the US because of their victory in the 1994 World Cup.

          Ronaldo didn't play in the 1994 World Cup.

            My pint being white kids don't typically see professional sports as their ticket out of poverty so they gravitate towards other venues.

              Whites on the other hand, tend to have more endurance than West Africans. The American urge to fix soccer’s rules to make it more exciting is a compulsion, in effect, to make soccer a better game for blacks.

              What a load of bollocks.

              Endurance, eh? Long-distance running has been dominated for years by Kenyans, Ethiopians and Moroccans, but those nations aren't noted for producing much in the way of great footballers.

                This. Though depends on which circles you travel among.
                “I give you a new commandment, that you love one another. Just as I have loved you, you also should love one another. By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another.”

                  Didn't matter; I remember both Ronaldo and Romario being referred to ad nauseum during the World Cup. American announcers like one-named Brazilian players, even if they're on the bench.

                    The majority of black people aren't poverty-stricken, you racist piece of ****.

                      You've been the most racist poster in this thread claiming one race is superior to others so stop trolling you racist piece of garbage.

                        Kenya and Ethiopia aren't in West Africa, and Moroccans aren't ethnically African at all.

                          Only an idiot would deny that black folk kick the **** out of everyone else at sports.
