Race in Sports

I recently came upon an article where a receiver for the Green Bay Packers reveals that he thinks being white helps him be better. This is because he and his teammates believe that defensive players look at him as a white player and think he can't be that athletic. That and the work ethic he has used to become that athletic allow him to gain an advantage over those who think they have the athletic ability to cover "just another white guy". I just thought I'd share this as it is interesting to see how race relates to aspects of life.
