Apparently, it's more likely for a black man to play hockey than fantasy sports


According to the Fantasy Sports Trade Association, Almost 96% of fantasy sports players are white.  About 1% are black, 1% are Asian and a little under 2% are Hispanic.  In the NHL, black players make up 1.5% of the active rosters.  The picture above is a very accurate picture of fantasy sports, since over 99% of fantasy players are male. 

I'd like to thank this league for being so racially diverse.  8% of the league is black, 8% of the league is Hispanic, and 8% of the league is Asian.  Just beauitful diversity.  Here's to you, minorities.  Without you, this would be a pale sausage fest.

"THIS numbers were figured"? Well you certainly write like a... never mind.

But seriously, the last name is the only Hispanic thing about you. You're as Hispanic as our old colleague Jane Lopez.

And I can't answer the questions on nationality due to confidentiality but if some people (David, Don, Matt) would stop being minorities and send their bios in, it'd be all good.

You guys seriously STILL haven't sent in your bios? Wow.

You don't have to write a novel, there enough of us who will do that for you. Just answer the bleeping questions!
