Canada is the greatest hockey country ever. The US is #2.

I can accept this.

We're still #1, even on your National Socialist chart.
Never denied that. And you have 2679 Medals on your what, 350 million people? We have 1682 on 82 million. Do the math.
The statement was that Germans are bad at every other sport than football, and that is clearly nonsense.
And socialistic? Get the fuck out of here.

So no specifics on your original premise?

F-16 (one just shot an SU-24 the fuck out of the sky)

F-18

Just no raptors. Sorry
SU-24 is an ancient jet with no air to air capabilities, isn't it?

Guess I will have to get a Eurofighter. I was gonna get an F 35 but doesn't look like they will ever be done.

I agree, I don't care for winter sports either, except Biathlon, I like that. It was not the question though, the argument was only lead that way because the original premise was so weak.

Just wait for the F-35s

Go to Europe for chocolate, handbags, and luxury cars.

Go south of the border for anything military-related. Besides the UK, the militaries of European countries are absolute jokes.

In what way have you disproved that Soccer being the world's game is a misnomer?

Eurofighter is primarily a British plane and pretty tight.

I just wanted you to know that they are stupid.

First of all, can you take your whole premise and not just one part of it that sounds the most reasonable? Second of all, I am still waiting on you to specify that before I even start trying to disprove anything of that mess.

Well you're not very good at any other sport that matters.

And Michael Phelps is American. Boom.

And socialistic? Get the fuck out of here.
It was a Nazi joke but I guess the name of the party is very different in Deutsche. Next time I'll say Schutzstaffel.

Nothing happened in Poland between 1939-45. They were invited, punch was served!

Because that always helps in an argument you know you are going to lose, play the nazi-card. Got ya.

And matters to what and whom? Seems like a very subjective view. Olympic Games don't matter? But American Football does, I suppose?

"I actually chuckle when I hear that soccer is "the world's game" it's huge in a handful of countries who suck at every other sport, and countries who can't afford to play anything else. More like the rest of the world's game."

That was what I said. There really isn't anything to specify there, it's pretty self explanatory, and the places where skill in other sports is growing, it's at the expense of soccer's popularity.

Well you jumped into this discussion without the proper thinking. But your graph seems weird anyway.

not entirely sure what this infographic is saying...is this all time winter?

but what the heck,Kanada? only 120 gold medals? total misuse of frozen mountains...and the north pole.

happy my team wins..and a little sad for niederlande.

It was a joke. It Anglo-Saxon culture it is just terrible to have to point out a joke (especially twice), but I'm doing it anyway just because you Germans are so good with humor.

That last part was also a joke.

Matters in the sense that a significant number of people watch it more often than every four years.




What, besides soccer, are you good at on this list?

We have never funded our sports properly until the Vancouver Games.

Only sports to play at the North Pole are looking for Russian subs and hiding from polar bears.

In which countries is it huge, only a handful, you sure? On what basis do you say that they suck at every other sport? Numbers? Facts? Anything?
Has the reason they suck at other sports made them chose football? Was it put down by their governments? Or maybe... do the people just enjoy it?!
Countries who cant afford to play anything else? Like baseball is such an expensive sport to play too, right? You need a smaller ball and a stick. Why do they chose football? It has to be poverty! Right?

In my mind, what you are doing is you try to make yourself to be exceptional and better than everybody else on the basis that you like other sports. A pretty cynic and in my mind, dumb view. I don't shit on countries who aren't good at football, why would I? Why do you shit on countries who are, without facts?
Let just everybody like the sport they like and stop shitting on the people or the countries. You can shit on the sport if you don't like it, that is a different matter.

Field Hockey, Tennis, Volleyball, Table Tennis.
Just on top of my mind, don't know about statistics.
