[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why is it never called racist when people put down “white” people whose kids play sports?

OP is absolutely being judgmental and not simply asking a question. Lots of kids of many backgrounds enjoy playing sports. As many others have said, there are a lot of type a people who are good at sports and academics. Many people feel strongly that being physically fit and developing teamwork, cooperation, and fueling a competitive nature provide solid skils to kids as they enter adulthood.

One kid’s interest in sports is no less enriching than another kid’s interest in music, theatre, or art.

The sports bashing gets so old. [/quote]

+1.  OP is trying to stir the pot.

Clearly different cultures have different ideas about different things.  [/quote]

No, read OP is carefully. OP expressed curiosity. I understand as I used to be mystified and wanted to know what I was missing. Others have responded contemptuously with comments including race. This pattern is no different from other DCUM posts. There’s always some amount of toxicity you have to weed throughout here.[/quote]

Curious that OP said “white people” then interchanged that with “Americans”. [/quote]
