Use your brain!
Australia is a very good sports orientated counbtry and for it's population it has done great.
But anyway what has the Olympics got to do with what country has invented sport? If you want to play that game.

Imagine if the USA basketball team lost every year, you guys would be claiming shenanigans.
See the difference, when our best show up, we win. When Englands best show up, they lose.

I'm not saying it's 100% good shows but as they're run by the taxpayer the quality is vastly superior to other channels.
I've been to your great country. Have seen television shows. Never mentioned BBC. You guys have trash tv just like the states. No doubt you have excellent ones as well ! Millions in Great Britain are glued to those shows just as much as mindless Americans are !!!

The BBC has no adverts at all so no interuptions. We certainly don't pay as much for HBO or SHowtime as you guys do compared to our own Satelite companies.
Paying 55,60 dollar PPV for boxing adds up a lot more if you are really into the sport.
In my opinion Baseball is not watchable. It is quite slow and boring to me.
American football again is slow because there are so many damn stoppages. Not watchable in my eyes either.
Excuse me for defending our preferences !!! No issues with the Brits here. Just defending whats ours and our great nation.
