re: Some local wannabe writer talking about LSU's lack of black baseball players

^^^^^

thats the long and the short of it if you have one black and one white receiver but the white one runs better routes he should play

if you have a black pitcher and a white pitcher and the black one controls his pitches better well you guessed it he should play


now if you want to talk about culture then it seems purely from participation that there are more blacks that play basketball and more whites that play baseball...its culture just like there are many latin and southern americans that play baseball/soccer you rarely see them play football its just a culture thing its just what everyone seems interested in

and by the way Ill advocate for Carter...nicest guy you can meet

I do think it is a problem for the sport that it has lost what used to be a large part of its audience going forward and a good chunk of its domestic talent base.

It is not an LSU baseball problem, but it is a baseball problem.

I think it is reflected in TV ratings. Same thing is starting to happen with hoops, I'm afraid. Both are becoming more niche, which is unfortunate.
