Am I white or black in this scenario?

Dumb AF. Fastest swimmer in the 50 is half black and 35, 3rd place in semis is entirely non Caucasian..

Cullen Jones, Simone Manuel, Lia Neal, and Anthony Ervin

Though you wouldn't really think Ervin is black by looking at him

Off track topic but on topic for the thread.

Has the Chinese showed up to any big events lately? It's time for them to get all blood doped up to win some medals again.

Last World Championships their WR and stud disappeared from the event and DNS for the final of his event.

The older guys have advantage in 50 due to starts and it's a technique race.

I love that dude. He spent 10 years wandering around the world then decided he wanted to swim again and made the team at 31. Then does it again 4 years later

This totally explains why I got throttled by the 50-54 masters world record holder in the 50 the summer before college freestyle was easily my worst stroke though. I swam IM so it was cool... lochte was not the Floridian who broke my record

Tori Bowie just ran 10.47 semi and a HS girl went 11.07 damn

There's a white girl in the semis also. She just won her Semi even.

Gatlin made his semi look easy.

Tyson Gay looked awful but moved to the final.

Bromell just ran a 9.86

Randall Cunningham's daughter just qualified in High Jump, she is coached by her dad and just graduated from HS.

Wow, rare anecdotal evidence to disprove an overwhelming tendency

I met an honest lawyer once. What do you think that means?

She seems like the great natural because she doesn't look masculine buffed out like Marion Jones or FloJo...but you never know.
