Why so racist?
....gets me thinking about that.....the first black to ever....?
Doug Williams out of Grambling was the first and only black NFL QB to win a Superbowl, he was a Redskin.
Jerry Levias was the first black to play in the old SWC, he was a wide receiver at SMU (Chargers later on)
Harmonica wizard DeFord Bailey was the first black to perform on the Grand Old Opry.
The first "Classic" book written by a black American author...The Autobiography of an Ex-Colored Man...James Weldon Johnson 1912 (in my library)
First black to record a blues tune....."Crazy Blues"....Mamie Smith 1920.
First black to win an academy award....Butterfly McQueen (guess what movie?)
First black to win the Olympic 100m....Eddie Tolan 1932 (Howard Drew probably would have turned the trick in 1912 if not for an injury, he was the first black sprinter to hold a sprint WR)
First black to gain a 1000 yards in an NFL season....Joe "The Jet" Perry Niners.
First black to win a world championship in boxing....George "Little Chocolate" Dixon...way way back when. Cat had over 800 fights. Sometimes fighting twice in one day.
First black to hold a pro rasslin' world championship.....Bobo Brazil.
Ernie Davis a Syracuse running back the first black to win the Heisman. Second was Bob Ferguson another running back out of Ohio State.
First black NFL QB to start a game....Willie Thrower (dead serious)...out of Michigan State. I'm thinking 1952, 53?
First black to play MLB....it wasn't Jackie Robinson, so who was it really?
First NCAA Champion basketball team to start five black players, Texas Western (UTEP)
First black USA president....Obama.
First black Heavyweight Champion of the World....Jack Johnson.
First black to ever sing on record.....

Realistically, you're racist.
There's a Miss Black American? Serious question.
As we can see, unlike the 100m there have been non black sprinters among the best at the 200m distance. The reason being it doesn't take that same level of explosiveness here it's speed plus speed endurance.

Damn that Avante, he makes me look dumber than I really am.

Avante, who would the 10 fastest black NFLers be?

Jeff Demps Florida/Bucs
Ron Brown ASU/Rams****
Alvis Whiited NCSt/Raiders

Avante, how in the do you do that? Ok, how about the fastest Charger?
No problem slugger.
That would be Alcorns Willie McGee, who was one of the seven to run the old 9.1 world record. Bob Hayes being the first.
Say Avante, who was the first black to your wife in your own bed while you just sat there like a little and watched, crying for her to stop?

Avante, I live in Jamaica NY, so who were the fastest Jamaicans from Jamaica?
No problem re .
Usain Bolt
Yohan Blake
Asafa Powell
Nesta Carter
Steve Mullings....Mississippi State
Michael Frater...TCU
Ray Stewart...TCU
Don Quarrie...USC
Lennox Miller...USC
Percival Spencer...TCU

Avante, we hear a lot about sprinting and Jamaica how about Trinidad?
Good one slugger.
E.McDonald Bailey (who died recently) was the first geat Trini sprinter, he was a 100 WR/Oly medalist.
George Lewis was also a world record holder.
Mike Agostini was a rarity, a white sprinter from Trinidad,he ran at Fresno State, one of the worlds best in the 50's.
Edwin Roberts ran at NCC and was a 1964 Olympic 200m medalist.
Hasley Crawford ran for Eastern Michigan, he was the 1976 Oly 100m gold medalist.
Marc Burns (Auburn) Kleston Bledman, Richard Thompson (LSU)..all sub10.00 guys
Ato Boldon who competed for UCLA holds both the Trini records in the 100/200.
I do get a kick out of these...."I'm dumb so I talk because I'm in hiding"...we see here.....obviously. Not a ing brain in their head.
Would it be too much to ask you to put the business end of a shotgun in your mouth?

I can't help myself, I see an Avante thread and I must be there to see what's going on. What spell he has over me I can't explain. He's like a magnet, he just pulls you in. Ignore my wimpy whiny bull , I get that way in Avante threads, he makes me feel so ....duh!!!!!!!!! Sure beats the out of all those...0...threads of mine.
