	First of all, I made this quiz mostly as a joke, so please don't make "oh this is racist" comments. Secondly, I hope you all enjoy the quiz and please let me know if I missed anyone or made any spelling errors.

	Najera is from Mexico, born to Mexican parents, and is therefore not White. He was born in North America however.

	king21:	Dec 6th, 2009 at 19:14 GMT	1 point
	good point bball37, i overlooked him. I am taking him out of the quiz right now. Thanks!

	Genuinely thought Kosta Koufos was Greek, but it turns out he holds dual-citizenship and was born in the USA! Also, kudos to the Steve Nash being born in South Africa bonus answer!

	Nice one. I keenly await the 'black guys in the NHL' quiz

Comment below threshold: show it

	steve nash?

	king21:	Dec 6th, 2009 at 19:52 GMT	1 point
	@transparentblack: Steve Nash was born in South Africa but moved to Canada when he was a year and a half old. That's why I have him listed as a bonus instead of a regular answer. By the way, there is one other bonus who grew up with a somewhat similar situation.

	So this guy is not white? http://blogs.mysanantonio.com/weblogs/atlarge/act_eduardo_najera.jpg

	king21:	Dec 6th, 2009 at 21:56 GMT	1 point
	@Guillermo: I had Najera in the quiz originally. As bball37 pointed out, Najera is from Mexico. People of Mexican descent (atleast here in the US) are often classified as Hispanic or Latino, so I removed him from the quiz. Based on further research, however, i found that many mexican-americans classify themselves as "white" in the US census since Hispanic and Latino are ethnicities and not a race. With that said, I am going to add him back to the quiz. If anyone has a better argument for why he should/shouldn't be included, please comment here.

	Jose Barea (Dallas) was born in Puerto Rico. Puerto Rico is a territory of the United States. If Najera is included, I think Barea should be also. Funny quiz, BTW In addition, you are missing Kyle Korver.. one of the sweetest strokes in the game

	king21:	Dec 10th, 2009 at 15:34 GMT	1 point
	@Hoff24: thanks for the input on Barea, i just added him. I flat out overlooked him. As for korver, he is in the quiz, he is one of the players on the jazz.

	I just updated this game with rosters as of 1/31/10. Let me know if I missed anything.

	kerrly12:	Jan 31st, 2010 at 21:30 GMT	1 point
	Brook And Robin Lopez have a father who is as dark as they come. Jose Barea, Carlos Arroyo, and Eduardo Najera are of Latin American descent, and Coby Karl is no longer in the league.

	king21:	Jan 31st, 2010 at 21:52 GMT	1 point
	@kerrly12: Karl was just signed by the Warriors. The Lopez brothers are hispanic, which as explained for reasons above, means they are included in this quiz. I have been searching to find out if their father is black-hispanic or just regular hispanic. Any help on that would be greatly appreciated, as it dictates whether the twins qualify as answers.

	Now we need a Black guys in the NHL quiz

	whoweareedmonds:	Apr 17th, 2010 at 18:50 GMT	-1 points
	You forgot Jason Kidd. Still the best white point guard from the US in the league. Even better than Mike Bibby.

	lechuck:	May 25th, 2010 at 23:45 GMT	1 point
	good idea, though some people might find this offensive (or white-centric). how about putting hispanic/latinos like arroyo, najera, barea as bonus answers only? that way, there's going to be less debate of the definition.

	wmccarthy3:	May 31st, 2010 at 07:28 GMT	1 point
	@whoweareedmonds: Jason Kidd is half black and considers himself black. Also, LOL at the Indiana Pacers.

	whoweareedmonds:	Jul 2nd, 2010 at 05:24 GMT	1 point
	@wmccarthy3: Indeed, as is Mike Bibby. That was the joke. Just trying to point out the complications with the quiz and in painting somebody as either white or black. Kind of like how the census used to not let you pick more than one race. We're past the one drop rule, right? Because some of these guys on here might not qualify, you don't know.
