White people from other countries seem to do fine, even in the NBA. We are even bad at the white people sports (tennis, golf (relatively), soccer). Why don't we have a Dirk or a Nick Willis or a Gareth Bale? Are they all playing football and baseball?
Discus.
OK, so list the sports that fit your extremely narrow definition.
1. White Americans ARE good at golf. All Americans are relatively bad at soccer. But why you classify that as a "white person" sport is beyond me.
2. White Americans are definitely not dominant in basketball. There's no way around that. An all-star team of white NBA players would be lucky to make the NBA final.
3. The other sports the US takes seriously have plenty of white stars. But your logic is idiotic. You might as well have written: "Besides the sports where white people do well, why are white people so bad?"
4. The US has plenty of Nick Willis-type track athletes.
