Correct. 10% of the time is a close number.
All races commit crimes at roughly the same percentage relative to their representation of the total population, ~15-17%. That is well documented and not disputed by anyone.
32 teams x's 53 regular season roster guys ='s 1696 players x' .3 = 508 white guys x's .16 ='s 81 white guys that are committing crimes, spousal abuse, drunk driving, steroids, etc... that have not been caught or have managed to keep it quite.
To be fair there are 189 black players committing crimes of which 170 or more have not been caught or managed to keep it quiet.
Note: that math does not include hispanics, asians or other ethnic groups as their sample size is probably too low to be relevant.
