One thing that was referenced on a Olympics summary program on Aussie TV the other night was an adjusted Medal tally comparing Australia with the US if Australia had the population of the USA ... quite insightful
But I think our tally would be even more impressive if we had the population of China LOL - anyway - the reasons related to funding, quality coaching and training venues are probably the main reasons why the US tally is higher than the others consistently.
I do take offense to the comment But I think that's because the author meant for everyone who has a brain to take offense - it's an offensive statement.
OY! OY! OY!
Welcome to the Rant EH?
