BOWLING: racial overtones or not?

[bonk102]

bowling is the only activity where you can carry around a towel to help you clean off your blue ball if you decide to take you ball out of it's sack, and it's the only sport where your REquired to wear stupid looking shoes.

and also the easiest sport to make jokes about

<< so why is it that bowling is dominated by whites??? >>



Because it's not a real sport.

Russ, NCNE >>



LOL.

I love bowling by the way. And just in case all these hockey fans haven't been following this season, a black guy is about to win the Art Ross trophy.

<< There's what... about 7 black players and a couple Koreans in hockey... so it's not total domination by whites. >>



there are Koreans in hockey???

and with all this...
what about dodge ball? all the fat kids are out first...
and ping pong? multicolor pads slapping a white (sometimes orange) ball around???

Of course bowling is a sport. Any who doubt that should try their hand at a few local tournaments and see how they fare.

My guess is that black athletes are more interested in the high profile sports where they find many role models, tons of fame and a lot more money.
