From what I'm seeing these days, I'd guess a big part of this attraction is still novelty and curiosity. You look at the major contact sports, however, and you have to admit that black males are
more physically fit and alpha, on average, than their white male counterparts. Its true or coaches wouldn't load their benches with black males. When its about
"money", the owners and coaches could care less whether the players are black, white, pink, or chartreuse. Plus, something was mentioned in another thread that I suspect might be a growing trend, and that is white males appear to be developing into a more submissive, beta race.
Whatever it is, there seem to be as many downsides to being more alpha as there are upsides. Longevity and mortality for one is shorter as these alpha blacks compete with each other. True alpha competition means "elimination" in other species ... 2 alphas fight ... one wins, the other dies or is cast off. Eventually the King Lion gets beat and replaced by a younger, more fit male lion. Its part of maintaining the strongest species.
So, I have no problem watching the alphas compete and exterminate themselves over foolish rivalries, while I enjoy an extra 10-15 years of life, drawing my pensions, doing some trout fishing, and enjoying my grand *******. Knock yourself out, fellas!
