You dont see many in olympic swimming events because they dont have many pools in the hood. Its a cultural and economic thing not a racial thing.

Don't be an idiot.
In a gross generalization, whites are better swimmers because they have shorter legs and longer torsos (lower center of gravity) while blacks are better runners because they have longer legs and shorter torsos (higher center of gravity).
At the highest level of competition, even a small percent advantage is huge.
No white sprinter has held the 100M dash record since 1968.
It is about biomechanics.

It's pretty interesting how Australian Aborigines for example are much better at tolerating the cold than us whitey.
Abo's have a great adaption to short-term cold (hours) that doesn't drop below freezing. They are more susceptible to frostbite than the rest of us, they just do well in cold desert nights.

While genetics obviously plays a big part in athletic ability, I can kind of see Bonk's point about practice. At least in soccer, the best players often come from the ghettos because all they do is play soccer. Even if they don't have a real ball, a stuffed sock will do. Ethnic background doesn't make a huge difference. When you train your whole life at a certain activity for 6+ hours a day, the better your chances to be a pro. Basketball is a little different because height plays a huge factor.
"Africa has more genetic diversity than the rest of the planet put together."
I'm not sure I buy that. How is an East African more genetically different from a West African as opposed to being different from an east Asian or a Norse? I don't think it's diversity that gives the continent the edge in athletics (where do North Africans figure?) Africans in general are just taller, leaner, and more muscularly dense than a lot of other ethnic groups - not to say that they aren't varied or that certain areas aren't better specialized for certain activities, but in general Africans are simply better built for sports. Power, endurance, and speed is 90% of sports.
Perhaps it's more a case of survival of the fittest... they probably had to rough it a lot more than people in other areas.

i'm not reading this whole thread but uh.. the blacks in america were specifically bred like dogs in the slaving days. so you know.. desired qualities that made for better slaves. this included size and strength. the more you know~
