Well, the NFL is 2/3rds African-American, so whitey better watch out.

The story about the two teammates who stopped being friends over this election was really sad.  Throughout the article, I kept wishing that they would give names!

I do think the top-line is off because they interviewed equal numbers from both races, when that's not the case in the NFL.  But, it seems that football is as racially polarized as Mississippi!!

There's more blacks than whites in the NFL though. This doesn't add up

I'd be more interested in seeing a poll of white (non-Euro) NBA players.

I believe it is 62% Black.

For 2014, it was 68% Black, 28% White with some Hispanics and Samoans making up the rest.  The one position that is still all white is the long snapper.
