The NFL: Now America's most hated major sport

It's not an insult. It's a category of thinking. Perhaps you'd prefer progressive?

You made the claim the MLB is racist (then backpedaled). When asked why you sited basic demographics. That is classic liberal thinking.

Then you were asked if you thought the NFL and NBA were racist against whites, you dodged. Also classic liberal thinking. Conservatives don't think this way. They believe in talent and hard work, not skin color.

 

Hey, everyone! I supported Marco Rubio and then Ted Cruz in 2016. According to Calumnian, I am a liberal.

I made no claim that MLB is racist. I merely stated a fact that the number of blacks in MLB is under represented.

Hey everyone! Stating factual information is classic liberal thinking.

I was never asked anything about the NFL and NBA being racist. I dodged nothing, for there was nothing to dodge.

You really do have a problem with reading comprehension and poor memory.

 

Yes, so you say. [edited]

 

MLB was the first major sport to break the color barrier way back in 1947. No, MLB is not racist.

 

I'm not the only one that came to that conclusion on this thread. You said the MLB is under representing blacks.

That is a very obvious smear. I think any activist would agree this means they are racist. Tell all you want, I stand by my statement.

This is very similarly to your Trump rape story. You float the story, then claim you're not accusing him of anything. It's the way you roll.

 

No, I said blacks are under represented in MLB. I gave no reason or motivation for that.

Factual statements are racist. Sure.

 

Yep. Classic ITL. Make a provocative statement, then deny it.

 

Not denying anything, except your misrepresentation of what I said.

 

Typical baiting. You've been doing this for a long time. Trump rape story.

 

MLB admits that blacks are under represented. Take it up with them.

 

Um, this isn't even debatable. Baseball and even black players have been trying to start initiatives to grow interest.

 

Yeah, I'd ask you to provide evidence for your claims, but you'll just shrug it off and say you are correct and I'm wrong without providing articles bolstering your claim or links to articles.

 

Cop out? He pretty much called it and was of course immediately proven right. I mean don't you ever get the slightest bit silly when you play this obviously childish game. You don't have The slightest clue what you are talking about yet your heels are dug in. It's gotten to where we know exactly how you are going to respond.

 

For the record. The decline is readily available to see in the spreadsheet at the bottom of the article.

Thanks for the update. My info came from an article that was written in 2014, before the SABR article was written.

 

They are 13.3% of the population, but less than 7% of that number are men, and even less than that are men in their prime for baseball, so, if anything, blacks over represented, even now.
