Americans of the Coli, the Olympics draw near, so allow me to propose a wager...
- Thread starter Gilver
- Start date
Gold
US - 1016
GB - 216
And the population difference hasn't always been 5:1, in the 40s it was 3:1, in 1982 the US population was 231 million, Britain was 56 million. As far as Gold is concerned, GB has been getting their shyt pushed in, and it's not the population difference.
The US has competed in 1 less Olympic games as well

??? So American posts being stupid excuses Limeys for being stupid?
I ask again, how does proportionality to population fairly measure Olympic success?
No wonder you idiots lost the empire, you are fukking retarded.

Back up here, Limey.
Do the sums here for us. How does it rationally follow that proportionality to population is an adequate measure of Olympic Success?
I'll give you a chance here. Why don't you come up with some possible reasons why your proposal is deficient. Let's see that anglo-saxon-jute intelligence put to some good use.
lol @ British math.
Why would i come up with reasons why my own proposal is deficient?
Listen, this is simple stuff, it's easy, i've worked it all out, it's not my fault if you're all too thick to understand it.
Higher population = more people = more athletes = more medals.
Then it is only down to the amount of quality athletes, and this is dependant on how great a sporting nation the country is, and according to my in depth calculations Britain is pound for pound a much better olympic(and sporting) nation than the USA.
I have yet to see any real evidence as to why this is not the case, you all just keep bringing up bullshyt reasons which make little or no sense at all.
Britain
brits dont want it, ask bisping
Congratulations, america is better in a sport in which they have far more athletes/competitors.
It's sad though, as soon as the brazillians started flocking to the UFC en masse america started looking
The real question is, has america EVER in the history of any sport, dominated a sport the rest of the world cares about?
We seen what happened last olympics when china decided to care. Imagine if they cared all the time?
Americans do play soccer. And they fukking suck.

Motherfukker you know that the only sport the world cares about is soccer. That question is loaded as fukk.
lmfao, how many British basketball players yall heard of? lmfao, you posh cacs ain't shyt.
It's really not mate.
Has America ever dominated a sport which is the #1 sport in the majority of the worlds countries?
I believe the answer is no
I mean i admire america in a way, i feel we(Britain/England
) let ourselves down, after we invented our sports we should have not let anyone else play, win it every time and call ourselves world champions
Not that america really invented all the sports they play or anything, but that's another discussion.
