How would you try to get young African Americans to focus on baseball again?

You topic is fine minus the ignorant beginning statement. Just like the other thread, generalized statements about a group of people tend to cause issues. Yes, there are ton of black players in the NBA and NFL that are athletic as hell, but it's dumb to suggest that the best athletes are majority black in the entire USA just because they play in sports that are more visible. What about hockey players, tri-athletes, or the like? Are they not as athletic?
