Team U.S.A. – Choose Your Sport

In the U.S. where basketball, baseball and American football rule, the performance of our national teams in other competitions is sometimes overlooked.  Considering the importance placed on sports in our society and the money and resources available you are left to wonder how we cannot be more competitive in sports outside of our “comfort zone”.  

The Rugby World Cup ended for Team U.S.A. today following a thrashing at the hands of South Africa.  This was hardly a big surprise.  The United States is not exactly a rugby nation while South Africa won the World Cup in 1995 and is a contender whenever it steps on the pitch.
