We are God-tier at the following sport:
Polo (We got cucked by the IOC removing Polo)

We are great at the following sports:
Football (Gives you 1 medal)
Field Hockey, Male and Female (2 medals tops)
Rugby (1 medal)
Basketball (1 medal tops)

We are sorta decent at:
Volleyball, Male and Female (2 medal tops)
Tennis (2 medals tops)
Boxing (Multiple medals)
Taekwondo (No idea how many medals this nets, not bothered enough to look it up)
Sailing (Same as above)

So you will notice, the sports we are good at, are mostly team sports, which give you only one medal after a grueling competition. We are not good at athletics, swimming, weightlifting, rythmic gymnastics, and the other stat-padding competitions that commie countries and dick-measuring countries care about.
And we couldn't give two fucks. We are great at some of the most beautiful sports in the world. I am not interested in getting a ton of medals by stat padding like the Cubans.

>We are God-tier at the following sport:

Polo is an elitist sport, few can pay the expenses required to maintain a herd of horses, although I know that Argentine polo horses are the best in the world and there is a long breeding tradition.
Argentines are actually better playing as a team, rather than competing individually, although I think this is due to a lack of state support, just as the countries that win the most medals do.
>>
>>142934230
>ust as the countries that win the most medals do
Because the States compete among themselves, between the West and the former Soviet Union, look at China's demand for its Olympic gymnasts, as an example, while in a country like Argentina, it is only on an individual basis,, for the pure pleasure of performing a Olympic discipline
They even make collections to be able to pay the trip since governments do not promote the Olympics
>>
>>142934230
>Polo is an elitist sport, few can pay the expenses required to maintain a herd of horses
This is a myth... kind of.

Most polo players are sponsored by some richfag, it's quite easy to get sponsored if you are a decent player. Here's the catch though: You won't be a decent player if you don't grow up around horses or around the sport in some fashion, so that does exclude a lot of people.

But there's plenty of polo players from a middle class or lower class background that started out as farmhands, small farmers, and the like. It's a sport that excludes city dwellers, that's for sure.

>>142934299
This is kinda true, although our govt does fund Olympic sports, there's a sports institute called CENARD that pays wages to the athletes and funds their training and expenses. But there have been periods where they had to cover some expenses of their own pocket due to budget cuts, and in some countries there is no CENARD equivalent at all, so yeah it's probably the main reason Latin America as a whole sucks at the Olympics.
>>
>>142934873
>This is a myth... kind of.

Well, those from the Argentine national soccer team running on horses to play polo, but only a few are chosen for the team.

It is almost as elitist as F1

Polo would not allow the majority of people to be represented, although the individual sports of the Olympics would.

It is a shame that the State does not sponsor the Olympic disciplines, there are many excellent people who participate just for pleasure, and they raise funds to pay for the trip.
>>
>>142935040
Nobody is saying that polo is a populist sport, it's not football, not even rugby, but there are outreach programs, to teach people polo... richfags are constantly scouting for new players, corporations want to sponsor them, rich Gulf Arabs, and the like... you do not need to be rich to play polo is all I'm saying (but it helps).

I know a polo player, not one of the top ones, but he was featured as a starter at a second rate team... he's a friend of mine, he comes from a very average middle class background yet he was able to make a career out of it. Both playing professionally, doing demonstration games and giving polo lessons.

>It is a shame that the State does not sponsor the Olympic disciplines, there are many excellent people who participate just for pleasure, and they raise funds to pay for the trip.
Like I said, it does, but the budget is peanuts, which is a disgrace... I would love to see more funding, don't get me wrong. BUT govts have a shitload of priorities to juggle, unless you are a rich country, or an authoritarian country interested in stat-padding (like North Korea, or Cuba), then it's not on the list of priorities.

Because all the ones who can run, jump and swim are in the US.

We only care for football.
I don't even know what most sports in the Olympics are. Running, swimming... Jumping? Is there a car race?

I hope it's not "the gigolo" Javier Basterrica ahah

Truly speaking, the horses of Paraguay are not comparable to the breeding horses of the Argentine pampas.

I was in Buenos Aires, and missing horse riding, I practiced horse jumping, and not because I like this discipline, but because it was an opportunity to ride a horse again, because I am a gaucho from Cysplatina

To stay in that discipline, horse jumping, riding boots are expensive, and I dislike English saddles and military-style riding, but for a change I practiced it when I was in Buenos Aires, and galloping in the military style was much better for me. gaucho with Creole saddle

I like to gallop gaucho style, rather than riding military style, as they call European horseback riding, going up and down accompanying the mount.

I am capable of traveling long distances riding the gaucho saddle, which is very good for enduring long gallops, but not with the thin English saddle, which requires a military ride to avoid hurting

The real thing is that our athletes don’t dope. You can argue all you want, but Olympics is a first world circle jerking. The olympic committee is on your side, the judges/refs are on your side and what a surprise that you are never caught doping. The difference between someone who uses drugs and someone who doesn’t is crazy. Lance Armstrong was a dog before the roids and when he started doing them, he won 7 tour the france is a row. Mind you.
