Well Weezy, in my travels I have found Australia to be the best breeding ground for sporting talent. So we all lose.

 Check AoA's post the second post of this thread....Thread was in fact already over...

We have more gold medals.

I got mad respect for you man ..

this is nothing personal just fact

So far so gloating continues. :)

Weezy, you are defining the term athletic as a mastery of sports that are played largely in the US, how can anyone win that arguement. I can't speak for other countries but basketball, baseball and American Football are fringe sports in Australia.

Our best athletes go into sports other than the ones that you have mentioned so when it comes to the sports you highlighted, then no of course we can't compete with America, and by extension, we can't compete with your concept of athleticism.

So let's say we invite the American Rugby Team (you do have one) to Australia to play a game. They would more than likely lose and lose badly and Australian people can point and laugh and say, "wow, those Americans aren't very 'athletic' ", because to be honest in Australia real sportsman/women don't require pads when playing a contact sport.

yeah hsrob you're right, wtf is with them and their padding anyway? Harden the **** up I say.

 In a year a Chinese person will make a thread called 'We (China) have the best athletics", we even have more gold medals than the USA (Beijing 2008) and I am so sure that you will post 'Because their are 5 times more Chinese than USA citizens'  =p.

And yup nothing personal ( I think people are wondering if we are fighting or not).

I want you to show me an athlete outside the u.s. who has the combination of speed, stamina, vertical leap,  and brute strenght that tops the best in the NFL or NBA.

Again this is all not personal just show me.

ok now reading HSrob's recent comment a couple times...

I understand what your saying. i guess there really isnt anything you guys do that compare to some of our sports. understood.

But show me other video's like running high jump man, our minds hasnt been changed about overall athlete.

Im in tears after I see these video's of athletic domination

:)

We can't as you have already made up your mind. AOA had your measure after the second post but all you do is ignore everyone else's responses with you haven't shown me proof. So what is it goin to take to prove you wrong.
