For the same reason Aussies, New Zealanders, and the rest of the world suck at American football. We have not been playing the game our entire lives.
 
Because it's not a real sport.

Third string NFL players would dominate rugby.
 
Because we play football. That's the real sport here. No one I've ever met wants to play rugby here.
 
Nobody here plays rugby. All of our best athletes are in other sports.
 
Rugby is an English sport, the best countries are from the Commonwealth of England, Rugby is part of many High School's curriculum in these countries. Rugby did not really gain popularity in the United States until relatively recently.

I've never heard anyone say "world champion" when referring to American football.
 
Why do the British suck at ice hockey?
 
We suck at it bcause we don't play it.


If we did play it, we would absolutely dominate it. No question about it.
 
No one here will take it seriously enough to be good because there is no pipeling to make a living off of it.

I mean anyone who could go into Rugby may as well try boxing or mma instead of Rugby. Mostly it be ex Murican hand eggers.

Anyone who would or could take Ice Hockey seriously on the British Isles may as well just do polo, field hockey, gaelic football.

Actually if you think about it Soccer is like hockey for people in countries without enough frozen ponds. Or hockey is for people in countries without enough dry, unfrozen land.
 
My university offered it as a club sport (barely, if any, funding by the school) and a friend of mine went to a private Catholic high school that played it. So, it's fairly niche. Not many players being groomed. Can only watch it on cable packages you pay extra for too. No one sees it or will want to play it over major sports played in America.
 
The reason, and only reason, is because we choose not to.

Remember this.
