Did racist use the "biological advantage" argument when Black athletes started competing alongside white athletes?

Jump

  • That’s a pretty big leap to go from “most Asians are lactose intolerant” to “they’re bred different”.

    I get what you’re saying, and mostly agree. But “they’re bred different” implies some sort of sub-human deliberate motive beyond just a consequence of a population living in isolation for centuries.

  • A Disney monopoly in streaming? Further consolidation wouldn’t be the worst thing at this point. There are too many competing services.

  • Buying is oftentimes preferable to renting. Right now is probably not one of those times, depending on where you live.

    100% better is twice as good, not infinitely better which is what’s happening here. This is dividing by 0.

  • It takes the same amount of time to drive from Milwaukee to Chicago as it does to get from Downtown LA to Anaheim at game time.

    Milwaukee has 500,000 people and Orange County alone has over 3 million. I don’t think you’ll convince me that an expansion in Orange County doesn’t make sense.

    It’s also easy to forget that until very recently, LA and California in general were the new markets true NHL was trying to establish a foothold in.
