Michael Wilbon took to The Undefeated, ESPN’s newest website, and discussed the sports analytics movement and how African American’s are not a fan.
Per Wilbon’s piece: https://theundefeated.com/features/mission-impossible-african-americans-analytics/
“Sports is emotional. And analytics represent the absence of emotion, the antithesis. Nobody gets into sports to be dispassionate. And it just seems to me we are the feel it, smell it, touch it people. “Don’t tell me that there are no black people who are good at math. There are black people who expert at quantitative analysis. I worry that it becomes a way to exclude.”
Per Andre Snellings Piece: http://www.rotowire.com/blog/sport/nba/
"My life is evidence to the exact contrary. I’ve lived my entire life in “Blackworld”, as Wilbon puts it. I love barbershop sports arguments. My friends and I LIVE to argue sports. My best friend Jamal and I once got kicked out of both of our houses because we were yelling so loud at each other on the phone in an hours-long argument about whether Penny Hardaway or J.R. Rider were better players."
