so you're proposing that skin pigment hides/detracts/abrades/ reduces talent?? mighty white of you for a brownie...LOL or did you mean that we hit Guinness and Harp's only from 5-8??
Never. Skin does nothing. But skin is a flag, a symbol. You use flags to tell one thing from another. There are many flags. Skin color is just one of them. Nationality is another. Culture too. We know that Joc has had more and better training than Puig in the OF. We know that Joc has had more and better training than Puig at hitting. Actually 'we' as in 'I' dont know shit about any of that. All i know is where Joc came from, his color, his culture, his markers. Same with Puig. And through that you can make rudimentary (yes, basic) assumptions that you can use when making broad generalizations about a player or players. But for most players and in most cases and for most situations broad basic rudimentary markers are the most accurately descriptive.
joc is the better cf that is all puig is the better athlete and, arguably, the better player puig is darker, joc is fatter lol they both like ice cream, puig has a better metabolism
