    I'd take it down, but it's gotten comical. Especially with the More Mexicans with speed than Blacks with balls comments.

    It's not really in their physiology (fast twitch muscle ratio), just like there are no fast Filipinos in the Olympics. PEDs can change that.

    Mexicans and latinos are usually faster than any caucasians...so just b/c they are not quite as fast as most African americans ans some Asians does not mean they don't have good hand speed..

    Speed is basically taught. Someone might be a natural or born with it, but it can be taught.
