This article gives me the opportunity to voice some concerns I have regarding race and sports.

For example, I am concerned that we don't have enough Black Polo players. If we don't take steps promptly to correct this situation, we may experience a Black boycott of Polo matches, with a resulting loss in revenue.

Another area that saddens and concerns me is Black participation in Yacht Racing. Perhaps with some large contributions to Jessie Jackson, he can help us develop more Black, America's Cup racers.

And there are other areas in sports with racial imbalances of which we should be more aware. For example, take the NBA...uh.....never mind!! :o)

Jesse should be focusing his attention on Black participation in graduating from High School. Not glamourous or lucrative, but it just might have a real impact.
