Default Is there anyone other than me that is proud of this country?

I am, but my pride is rooted in what this country has achieved in
fields other than the sporting, except to the extent that we invented
a number of sports.



Personally I'd rate us more by achievements in science, engineering,
democracy, exploration, literature, and the English language.


Are they Olympic sports?


No. Did anyone say they were?
