Great point.

This is why India hasn't had more success, despite their large population numbers. A huge impoverished class with poor nutrition.

And more people participating in them.

More people with the money to participate and really dedicate training to.

World class training facilities, programs and coaches.

All of which contribute to a larger pool of gymnists, swimmers, track, and other athletes from which Olympic class athletes rise from.
so, in a nutshell, USA = goat?

Why would Aussies and kiwis be bitter when we are doing better than the states?

Not that any of us can take any credit for how any of the Olympians are doing anyway, it's just a bit if fun to follow.

Why would anyone doubt that the USA will always win the most medals?

They are the only country that has a surplus of well fed west African stock. Athleticism is like 70% genetics and nutrition. It has zero to do with "American spirit", rather good environment and genes

Also some countries really do not care about the olympics and they pay whoever steps up to represent them just like the shameful diving team last olympics.

For the most of the world. Sport = Football.

They dont care about competitive sports like Archery, shotput, 50m breaststroke (rofl), etc where all you have to do to qualify is turn up

Sorry to burst your bubble bra but registered rugby players:

England. 1.9 mil.
USA. 457,000
NZ. (Allblacks GOAT). 114,000
Aus. 86,000

Second highest registered players in the world and US national team is poverty. 3 x the amount of the most dominant international sporting team ever (NZ).
