I work with some native west Africans, and I was surprised how small they are. Chris Rock was right about the government and breeding programs back in the day.

I've always wondered this myself. Seems the same demographic that makes the best football players would also make the best basketball players. But I guess basketball is more popular in other areas than in the south?

Southern states have spring high school football. More practice generally equals better players to offer a reason other than just race.

Ohio, Pennsylvania, Florida, Texas, Cali, Louisiana.
