    Say what you want boys, these Chinks are catching up on us and we need to be getting more victories than the Olympics.

    Yeah ok for bragging in the bars or to make ourselves feel better. Just glad there isn't an industry Olympics.

    Oh, we know that most of the world hate us because "They Mad", that we hunt for sport while they hunt to eat. They mad because we can flush fresh water down the toilet. They mad because they have to come to America to really get educated. They mad because we have real cool pro sports. They mad because we're the big brother that has to come and protect your ass when your neighbor want's to invade your country.

    The only time countries care is when we have to step up to bail they're ass out physically or financially.

    People from other countries always tried to compare themselves to USA. Americans had no reason to argue because they knew the truth.

    Now people from USA are starting to compare themselves to China.

    Sad times ahead.

    No country stays on top forever. The US has had a great run and probably has another half a generation as top dog. The further we move to the left the more we become like Spain, France, greece and Europe in general. There is no way to stop it imo. Countries like India maybe Brazil that can keep taxes low and get out of the way of business will be the next super powers.

    1. Jamaica, the small island country of 2.7 million people, has won nine medals in London, giving it the highest per capita medal rate of any nation with multiple medals. Athletes won one medal for every 300,000 citizens. India (four medals) finished in last place. Its athletes would have needed to win 4,138 medals to have the same rate.
    2. If Jamaica were a state in the U.S., it would rank No. 35 in population. Nevada has approximately the same number of residents.

    3. The island nation has won all nine medals in track (and, more specifically, the sprints). That was good for second on the athletics medal count, ahead of Russia, Great Britain, Kenya, Germany, Australia and China.
    4. One nation was ahead of Jamaica in the per capita rate: Grenada. The tiny island country in the south Caribbean has won a gold medal courtesy 400 runner Kirani James. It’s the first medal ever won by one of Grenada’s 100,000 citizens. How tiny is the country? Only nine athletes were sent to the Olympics. (Which is actually a lot, if you think about it.) It’s total size: The same as Winston-Salem, N.C.
    5. How about big countries? Obviously the per capita rates are dominated by nations with small populations and lower medal counts. But where do the big boys stand? Of countries with more than 20 million people, Australia has been the winner even in a disappointing Olympics. The nation has won 30 medals for its 22 million people.

    6. If the threshold is 50 million residents, the host nation is ahead: Great Britain, population 62 million, has won 54 medals overall.
    7. The United States is 40th on the per capita medal count. Athletes have won 90 medals for 313 million people; a ratio of one medal per 3.5 million residents.
    8. Top five: Grenada, Jamaica, New Zealand, Slovenia and Denmark.
    9. Bottom five: India, Indonesia, Egypt, Turkey and Algeria.
    10. At least those countries have won medals, which is more than Pakistan (179 million), Nigeria (162 million), Bangladesh (142 million), Philippines (92 million) and Vietnam (87 million) can say.

    Congratulations to Mexico on winning the Olympics. As soccer is the only sport that really matters in the world, it's obvious Mexico won. Congrats. The rest is just is either a competition of designer pharmaceuticals or some truly ridiculous sport.

    Settle down what? Just pointing out that if the USA has people who compete in these "non-sports" and eventually become good your not going to give your fellow Americans credit?

    I'm curious what is your definition of an actual sport?

    Baseball has guys who use a bat to hammer a ball to allow them enough time to run through the bases. Hand-eye coordination to swing and make contact with the ball or catch/pitch. Running involved to catch the ball. Baseball pitch max speed around 90-100 something mph.

    Badminton (not the backyard beach trash version you probably think of) player uses a racket to hit a shuttle downward into the opponents court before they can return it over the net. Hand-eye coordination to make contact with the shuttle. Can apply slice to make the shuttle rotate violently to make it difficult to hit back (Tennis players or other people who play racket sports can relate to this). Lunges, jumping (especially to allow you to hit the shuttle at a steeper angle with racket) etc to retrieve shuttle that travels >200 mph at top speed.


    Like do you think anyone in the US would care about swimming or track and field as much as they do at the Olympics if say Jamaica won the 29 or so medals in track and field with U.S. winning 8 or whatever Jamaica has right now.

    Only fair comparison population wise is Soviet Union which is still crushing like always. 155+ medals.

    That's without using blacks/asians/etc. which is all the more impressive.
