Racism consists of both prejudice and discrimination
based in social perceptions of biological differences between peoples.
It often takes the form of social actions, practices or beliefs, or
political systems that consider different races to be ranked as inherently superior
or inferior to each other, based on presumed shared inheritable traits,
abilities, or qualities. It may also hold that members of different
races should be treated differently.[1][2][3]

Contrary
to popular thought, athletes can't sully great legacies by staying in
the game too long and not knowing when to retire or stay retired.
They
can damage their bodies and brains, perhaps, by not knowing when to
quit but loving your craft so much you don't know when to stop is not a
character flaw. Making excuses and vainly trying to diminish the
accomplishments of your opponents, however, is a sure-fire way to
tarnish even the shiniest legacy.
