The question is who, apart from OlympicsFan, would chose USA over Canada lol

 

Well according to him, everybody chooses the USA.  

 

To each their own though....

Exactly. Same thing as, for example, Sifan Hassan. Or Mo Farah.

 

 

Because people from african countries never win medals in middle/long distance running without help from the western world.

Nobody says that. I don't know about Farah and Ahmed, but I know Hassan didn't run seriously back home and only picked it up in the Netherlands. Might be the same for the rest. It's not about nations, it's about individual athletes.

They don't if they're from nations in perpetual civil war like Somalia. Nations like Kenya and Ethiopia have strong athletics infrastructure and support programs in place.
