Anyone who watched both Battle of Britain and Dunkirk understands which of the two is a better war movie
World Cup!!!

yes, hockey a sport with brute strength really doesn’t have its fair share of blacks, but isn’t america’s best speed skater that Ono guy? so a generation should do the trick.
-
Uh, no need to burst your bubble but Apolo Ohno is a Japanese American, not Afro-American.
-
but isn’t he black (half black or something?) tell me if i am mistaken, maybe i just have horrible memory.
-
I think the number of blacks in the NHL is on the rise and some of them are already dominating. Take for instance Jarome Iginla, he won the scoring title this year.
-
i don’t see too much hockey, but when i do it is watching sportscenter, and I’m yet to see a black (i’m not saying they aren’t there though) or Italian :cry:
-
By the way, Apolo Ohno is half Japanese.
-
and half black?
-
And half Caucasian.
-
Yeah, I never head Apolo was ever black or even partly so.

There are more and more blacks playing hockey as years go on.
You must not watch alot of hockey, there has been a few Italians.
Well, Canadians with Italian back grounds.
This is a list of black people, that I know of, playing in the NHL.
Anson Carter-Edmonton Oliers
Mike Grier-Edmonton Oliers
George LaRoche-Edmonton Oliers
Steve Weeks-Carolina Hurricans
Fred Brathwatie-St. Louis Blues
Donald Brasher-Philadelphia Flyers
Jerome Inginla-Calgary FlamesBetween 1980-1996 there was roughly 3-4 black people who played the game.
And I know I’m missing some. -

Nah, hockey can never replace soccer. Simply put, it can never be played worldwide like soccer can. For soccer, all you need is a ball, an open field, and 4 rocks to mark goal post. Wtih hockey you have to wear all that equipment, have your goals, and play either in a indoor arena or in a frozen lake. (Not to mention you first need to know how to ice skate).

Ya, your right it wont replace soccer, why would the world bother. You can’t beat Canada at hockey so why even try!:)
Most people who play hockey here learn to skate right after they learn to walk.
I played in my first hockey game when i was 5 years old, on a outdoor rink at 5:30 in the morning, in -30 weather……thats hardcore devotion. -
And half Caucasian.
i sa a picture, my mistake…i could of swore we had a black guy on our team…
i apologize!

Enjoy you moment in the sun for now (well sun melts the ice, so enjoy in the refrigerator), Americans will soon take over the sport like we’re doing everything at else. Give it 20 or so years, and we’ll take it over like soccer (you can’t say we’re not getting better already). :)
