NFL (american football/gridiron) is now being shown in Australia so I've been catching parts of some games. One thing I've noticed is that the players are predominantly black like in the NBA except for the quarterbacks, does anyone else find this strange?
Is there any valid reason that there are so many white quarterbacks? I have a hunch that it is to do with the marketing of the game, much easier to market a team with a white quarterback to a mostly white population. I don't know enough about the game to really understand if there is some other reason why old whitey dominates the quarterback maybe someone else who is a follower can pipe in.
Speaking of NFL, one of the best games I have played was High Impact Football in the arcade, I think it has a sequel which was good too (Super High Impact Football). If you haven't checked it out have a go, I don't necessarily like grid iron that much (we have Aussie Rules Football) but this game is very fun.
