Post a YouTube lifting video here so I can see. Maybe the color is off on my computer but you could be in red denial. I'm sure in Boston you are considered a Norwegian-like blond or something but I don't know that true blonds would claim you.
You're scary. You don't know where I live do you?

LA, right?

People on this website are weirdos. If you remember stuff about them they freak out. I do have a really, really good memory though. Schu always gets freaked out about it. And I can recall stupid wrongs people said on this site from years ago.

Like for no reason at all I remember you telling the story about witnessing your dad get his ass beat in the front yard when you were a kid. I just remember almost everything I hear or read. ZOMG WEIRDO. Suzzer you are one of the most open posters on this entire website. You are always talking about personal stuff and have posted several pics. Don't be weirded out that people remember that stuff. Or if you are, then stop posting pics and talking about personal **** dummy.

My memory is only strong long-term though. Like I tried to parlay this into stud success and yeah no that wasn't happening.

ZOMG tuq ghana have rustled jimmies when he finds out you think I'm him.

Hmmm. On reflection, my point about some blacks who have never run the 100m being better than the top white sprinters is absolute garbage.

Why lock the thread though. It's worthy of debate and any sports fan who claims never to have even thought about the issue is probably lying.

most impressive white guy sprint win by far is kenteris in the 200m final in sydney. all other runners in the final were black.

also op, caucasian does not mean white. indians are also caucasians yet can be darker than blacks. white is a social /cultural / religious / geographic concept (basically all native europeans). someone mentioned cr7 not being white. he is, just not nordic looking white (because of the medit climate). much as a thai looks very different from a korean person yet they are both asian.

I would define a white guy as someone who will apologise if you step on his foot and shoot you if you step on his land. And someone who doesn't look that weird dancing at a Peter Gabriel gig, in his early 50s.

Not just my opinion but SCIENTIFIC FACT.

From what I have seen on this forum about all these guys with yellow fever, there are a lot of cockasians.
08-14-2012 , 11:56 PM
I never was attracted to Asian girls until I constantly heard white guys talk about Asian girls and Asian girls talk about how they like white guys. Now, they are starting to look good imo. Besides, white women are all either ice princesses or white trash. There's like no middle ground.
08-15-2012 , 01:23 AM
wait till u get into the asian girl bear tarp. ice princesses will sound a lot better
08-15-2012 , 02:10 AM
I'm married to a white woman, but in general, white women ****ing suck.

Hispanic chicks have always shown the most interest in me. But they'd **** anyone I guess.

The cricket chinaman thing is wild. No way they would allow that to continue in the U.S. (I can't imagine).

Reminds me of a legendary minor league hockey announcer who has been broadcasting forever who got himself in a little hot water last year for saying an opponent had a "little jap attack from behind"

He apologized for it but then turned it right around and observed that the complainers were being too nit-picky.

Chase meant ‘no malice’ with use of phrase
Justin A. Cohn | The Journal Gazette
Bob Chase said he intended “no malice whatsoever” with a remark made Saturday during the course of the Komets’ game at Rapid City, S.D.

In the second period of the Komets’ 3-1 victory over the Rush, after a Fort Wayne player was stick-checked from behind, the team’s longtime play-by-play broadcaster said: “A little Jap attack from behind that time.”

Chase, 85, who is in his 59th season calling Komets games, is a veteran of World War II and served in the Navy in the Pacific Theater for 2 1/2 years.

“If I had said something that was a critical thing with reflections on specific people like the Japanese, that would be something,” Chase said. “We’re more than 60 years away from that war. And I was in that war. ... To me, what I said was not a slur.”

The 70th anniversary of the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor is Wednesday.

Chase has called every season of Komets hockey except the inaugural one, and he has served as the team’s general manager. He has the No. 40 retired in his honor at Memorial Coliseum. He is also the former sports director at WOWO, which carries the Komets’ games.

Chase said he was saddened to learn at least one listener had contacted The Journal Gazette expressing dismay over Chase’s description.

“I don’t want to be inconsiderate to anybody,” Chase said. “This was part of our vocabulary for a lot of years. And if you haven’t lived (through WWII), it’s hard to understand.”

Chase said, however, people can be overly sensitive.

“I feel sad about (this) kind of a thing,” he said. “A little, teeny-weeny nitpicking moment. People don’t understand or are so sensitive that they lurk on every word so they can pounce, and that’s a spiteful person.”

Organizations like the Japanese American Citizens League decry the derogatory nature of “Jap.” But Koichiro Otani, a Japanese-born associate professor at IPFW in the department of public policy, doesn’t consider Chase’s remark particularly offensive.

“In the context of a hockey game, I don’t think of this as such a big thing,” Otani said. “He wasn’t referencing some really terrible attack. A play like this happens all the time in the course of a game, right? If someone brings a knife and he injures another person, that would be worse. ... Some people won’t like (him using ‘Jap’) but I don’t personally think it’s that offensive, no.”

Komets president Michael Franke couldn’t be reached for comment.

The level of overlap makes this discussion pretty irrelevant. "White guy sucks in men's 100 metre sprint" is nonsense. The "white guy" ran faster than ALL the billions of black guys on the planet barring three or four.

True, but let's say (hypothetical nonsense alert) that every human male was given the best possible sprint training, coaching and diet regime from the age of 8.

At 20, they hold a time trial for the 100m.

How many white sprinters do you think would make it into the top 500?

I would be surprised if any made it into the top 10,000.

^ eventhough on average a certain population might have a genetic advantage, there will always be outliers that crush among the supposedly not so gifted populations

The semis of the 100m (24 racers) included at least one white guy and 2 asians. You seriously think there are 9,979 black people who are genetically gifted enough to finish ahead of those three?

I think there are 9,979 black people in the United States alone, possibly in California or Florida alone.

I browsed through this thread. I kinda agree with Michael Johnson. I grew up in a very multicultural diverse area and played a lot of pick up basketball. As a general rule, a black kid was WAY more likely to be very quick and explosive, but there were occasional white/hispanic/Asian kids who shared this trait.

In the 1972 Olympics white athletes won the 100m/200m sprints in both the men's and women's events. I think quite a lot of it is to do with tradition and self-belief. Presumably Kenyans share similar physical characteristics to other black people but they produce middle-distance runners rather than sprinters.
