I remember one professor told me years ago in a statistics class that "there is always an exception to the rule, but not necessarily change the rule." I was thinking about this recently after receiving an email that said, "you know things are bad when the tallest player in the NBA is Chinese, the best golfer is Black, and the best rapper is white. "Although I do not know about the" Rapping is true that Ming is the tallest player in NBA nearly 8 feet high, and 'Tiger' is one, if not the best golfer in the world. But like exceptions in other areas of life, do these exceptions in the sport really change the rules, or is the culture and environment in the decisive factors that sports we participate in.

Growth in Baltimore, sport was an important part of my life. The sport of choice for me and other kids in the neighborhood at the time were baseball and football, basketball is a distant third. Usually played baseball from April to late summer and then picked up with football in the fall. Sports like tennis, golf, lacrosse, and swimming were virtually nonexistent. Poor children as a 'rule' did not play these games, which were for rich kids. Golf clubs costs money, much more than a baseball and a bat. And none of us would be subject died in the clothes you have to use the course.

Over the years, the neighborhood produced many exceptional athletes. Some came to play professional baseball and football. There were many others who probably have made the grade if he had not succumbed to some of the influences of the neighborhood, such as drugs and alcohol. But of all the great athletes I played with growth, I do not recall any exceptional golfer, swimmer, tennis or lacrosse players. In fact, I do not recall anyone ever having played sports. These things are really different today?

It is no coincidence that most of the players that make the NBA and the NFL are Black. It is a combination of skill and access. Growing up in the middle of the city, there is little space or facilities for sports. Basketball is the game of choice for children from the city center. Basketball courts do not require much space and improvised baskets can be set anywhere. The hours spent on acquiring skills in the district court to turn some fantastic players. High schools in the cities also put much emphasis on basketball and football. And unlike other sports, basketball and football are cool.

Moreover baseball has evolved over the years. At one point, it was an American sport. Today, baseball is international. In fact, look at the list of almost any team of Major League Baseball, and you'll find many of the most talented players from Latin American countries. Again, no coincidence that baseball has grown in popularity in these countries. It is a sport that can be played by almost anyone with a ball, bat, glove and an open field. No fancy equipment or facilities. And weather permitting, to play the game almost all year round, it is not surprising that these countries are producing many players from MLB

The "other" sports like tennis, golf, swimming and things like figure skating and ballet will continue participating in sports largely because people have the means and access. You will not find many ice rinks or swimming clubs in the slums and while there may be a golf course occasionally here or there, the team and the fees put out of reach for most poor people.

Culture and environment will shaping the world of sports. While not the occasional Larry Bird, or Tiger Woods, the game will most likely continue to be dominated by people who have access to they. I was thinking now, if Michael Jordan was raised in Canada, and Wayne Gretzky in the U.S., who have achieved greatness in the sport itself chose?
