African-American males are only six percent of the United States population, but comprise nearly 70 percent of the players in the National Football League.

In the spirit of racial equality, isn't it racist that European-American's are so underrepresented?

I’m pretty sure that if you offered White Americans the chance to take the additional slots (if the NFL wanted to “equalize” the league), they’d jump at the chance. Concussion risk or not. Whatever their race, it’s all about the $$ and glory. If they don’t go into the NFL, many of these guys take blue or low-paying white collar jobs. Their favorite activity will be going down to the local bar and reminiscing about the glory days.

Soldiers put themselves in harm’s way for a heck of lot less and come away with more serious injuries or death.

The reason blacks vastly outnumber whites on NFL defensive teams is because they are better athletes. -Tom
