I'm just messin around with my other posts.
I honestly think it's because White athlete's will not make it at most positions so they focus harder on the QB position, and are tried out there more, because that's the only place they would be able to play, and black people are more often put at the other skill positions because they can fill those roles.
I also think that white kids whose parents want them to be a QB groom them to be so very early in their lives.

depends what level you're talking about. If It's High school It could be both ways....also have to consider whether that HS is out in the suburbs or if it's an inner-city school.

If you ask a ?? that involves race, the answer will as well.
Notm trying to be a smart ass, or a dick. Sorry if it sounds that way, but it's really hard to answer this ?? without delving into racial tendencies.

There are a lot of black soccer players, so it does seem weird that there are not more black kickers in any level of football. I've never seen one in PeeWee, High School or College, much less the pros.

True, and there are TONS of schools who have black QBs. College, and HS.
The best of the best at every position end up in the NFL. Most of the best QBs just happen to be white at this point in time, and the best players, at most other positions are black.
I hope this answer doesn't offend anyone. It's not meant to, and I don't consider myself to be doing anything other than answering a ?? honestly.

I don't know if Reggie Roby punted for the Rams or not. However, I do know that Reggie Roby had the sweetest facemask ever!

You asked a question regarding race. So my answer will obviously involve race.

See my above post.

You said it wasn't about race.

Not a big deal, just my observation.

To be honest in my life and what I've seen, I've never met a black person who can swim well. I used to have an in-ground pool in my backyard at my parent's house growing up and I would have our HS basketball team come over and party. None of the black guys would leave the shallow end. ROFL

Maybe back in those days, blacks weren't allowed in white pools and he felt uncomfortable. Maybe he thought you white people were trying to trick him into the pool so you could drown him.

Look, I'm a white guy and this thread is making me uncomfortable. I had to make sure the date on my computer said 2009 and not 1968.
