So then why does it seem like the rest of the world is trying to field the best competitors they can, and are actually winning medals in the process? Maybe we know something the rest of the world doesn't.

If we can't even field a winning team in 'BS sports', how the hell are we supposed to be taken seriously right from the get-go? Surely these sports would be the ones most easy to train for, and win at.
