The continued decline in US Sports

It started with baseball. Cuba and Japan routinely defeat us in our national pastime. Almost as embarrasing, even in basketball the U.S. no longer can just show up and claim the gold medal. But now, even more humiliating, our continued decline on the world stage of sports continues. More humiliating than our baseball losses, worse than the basketball fall from glory...now we can't even place in the World Wife Carrying Championships. Next thing you know we will not even be allowed to compete at Marbles...
