We must admit that their are fields of endeavour peculiar & particular to certain Races, Tribes, & even regions. Like football to the Latinos & the upcoming Africans, tennis to the East Europeans etc , etc. This does not mean that the necessary skills cannot be learnt & perfected; but it's an edge to have the gift. The USAs' cosmopolitan nature has afforded it the human resources & its boundless wealth combined with its entrepeneurship has allowed it to advance or try to advance itself in every sport. England has become cosmopolitan but is it harnessing its resources? Is the govt. giving enough incentives for sports? Are the businessmen interested in investing in sports? Look at the trend in football; the Americans & Russians are buying up faster than the English team is scoring goals! Lastly I believe English cricket needs a lot of oomph. They need to be spiked up by something. Look at the Aussies, they are on fire from the 1st ball no matter the loss of wickets. Belief is lacking
