Yikes....USA fail to qualify for the biggest sports event on Earth...

I think....Serbia...and Spain are the only other nations on this Earth that take Basketball seriously. No one else plays NFL.

....and even still Football is #1 in those nations (Spain won the 2010 World Cup).

Your best athletes play sports no one else does...kinda like that kid that was always playing some variation of bounce the ball on the wall at school; he was #1 because no one else played that sport.
