That proves my point, you have an elite tier and a bunch of developing national programs. This isn't really a topic I've ever had to debate, anybody who knows rugby pretty much accepts that as fact. The developing programs are getting better and the gap is closing, but they are still fringe sports in their countries.
Btw, the US has been far from dominant in basketball for a long time. They are not guaranteed gold medals, or any medal, anymore.
