Basketball.

James Naismith, a [white] Canadian-American physical-education director, invented the game of basketball in 1891.

So SOME “cultural appropriation” (like straight hair and tap-dance) is okay for those with most-favored minority status, but not vice-versa (Rachel Dolezal excepted).

Caitlin Clark brings WNBA out of the closet (so to speak) as a game watched mostly by middle-aged lesbians to water cooler conversations across the nation by beating black athletes at a game they, due most likely to upbringing and several hundred years’ selective breeding while enslaved for traits like endurance, heat tolerance, strength, agility, and the race hustlers try and make Caitlin out to be an interloper, a pariah.

She’s crossed a line here. Not since the days of Bill Walton have all-American wypipo excelled at this game dominated by black Americans.

No, I don’t “do” organized sports, never have. But Caitlin’s in our faces 24/7 on ALL media - for all the wrong reasons, I think.

The two best players in the NBA are white Europeans. The Europeans grew up focused on fundamentals during their practices and played maybe 1-3 games per week.

In club/AAU teams they hardly ever practice and play 7-8 games on a weekend. It’s all one-on-one, with rare exceptions.

Mens volleyball is a really big deal in Europe with many countries having very athletic players around 6’10”; much more athletic than most big men in the NBA.
