hmmm... good question. Well, we don't suck at baseball, we're actually pretty good at that, as for american football, the only dutch player is a fieldgoalkicker and he never missed, the others are lame americans, you probably had no use for em and send em to us. Hockey is a mistery to me since every dutchman can skate and fieldhockey is being played a lot, so if you combine those two.....And basketball, well, you know what they say, white men can't jump.

I presume you meant to say GOAL, not GAME right?

What about the kings? Or Dallas? Most fo the players there are white. WEll maybe not most in the kings, but Dallas at least.

Nash that plays for the mavericks is one of the most tricky players there are when it come to ball handling. If I remember correctly the last 3 years a white person has lead at 3 poins made.

They wear Stockton in 1999.

And Stoiojkovich the next too.

Oh and as for why Dutch dont play Ice Hockey when they all can skate and field hockey is big, is becasue its realyl a diffrent game. There requites more stick handling in ICe Hockey because the puck is harder to controll on ice. That maybe one thing. And you have to be more alert in Ice Hockey, one guy can slip and it turns over a breakaway.

i didn't mean 3- point shooting, every white nba player can shoot, no problem. I meant dominate the boards, slamdunk, you know, i don't believe i ever saw stockton do that, or nash. Stojakovic maybe, but that doesn't count. He's not exactly white, he's transparant.
