The importance of individual and ethnic self-esteem in sports
I'm all for merit, people
selected on the basis of their ability, in all fields, but it is
now considered politically incorrect or bigoted to even ask the question: what is it
doing to the general self esteem of white men in the U.S., especially
young white men, when both amateur and professional basketball and
football have become an exclusive celebration of black athletes---sports that once featured white athletes? Think of the college
football National Championships, the NBA basketball finals, college basketball March Madness ( in the Final Four this weekend), and increasingly the Superbowl.
You might object that the
Stanley Cup in hockey, the Indianapolis 500, the Boston Marathon, or
the winter
Olympic games are mainly celebrations of white athletes, but you know
they don't come close to the sports madness and ratings status of the finals
in amateur and professional basketball and football. The liberal Media goes all out for these celebrations.
