Why doesn't he get his fat butt on a sled and become a competitor? Besides, every other sport is dominated by blacks. His statements are nothing more than racism. A white person would be crucified for making a similar statement about whites.
Of course Gumbel would complain about the lack of black swimmers in the Summer Games.
Not exactly. At elite levels of competition, athletes of West African ancestry utterly dominate the sprints, as well as positions in team sports that emphasize foot speed. But black athletes are not especially dominant in events emphasizing strength, endurance, or technique (with the interesting exception of the Kenyans and Ethopians in the marathon). Raw speed is important in a lot of games, but different sports favor different body types.
