Now that women's sports has become "failed male athlete" sports, it has the tone of varsity vs junior varsity competition.

They also have little to no military and sacrificed their own energy independence in favor of reliance on their supposed mortal enemy in Russia. It's a completely emasculated and idiotic country after expending millions of their best men in two world wars.

Politics related because it's the Olympics. Duh

Why does Germany suck so bad at the Olympics? Even compared to other Western European teams. Germany is barely registering in the Medals table

Most populous of Western European countries

By far the biggest economy in Europe, even counting Russia

They suck. I wonder why
Germany Defeated Spain to win the Gold in Womens 3x3 Basketball.
Dirk was seated next to Pau Gasol of Spain, and Carmelo Anthony of the United States.

They were all diplomats for their fellow country to support this new Olympic Sport.

The Germans beg to differ. They are in the Semi Finals of the Mens Olympic basketball tournament.
They just defeated Greece...despite them having Giannis Atttentekoumpo aka the Greek Freak.

Deautshland is no joke when it comes to hoops. The Germans have one of the better teams left ,and it would not surprise me to see them medal.

Quote:

Germany overcame a rough first quarter to take down Greece 76-63 in the Olympic quarterfinals of the men's basketball tournament.

Greece star Giannis Antetokounmpo had 22 points, but that wasn't enough for the Greeks to put up a second-half challenge against the defending FIBA World Cup champions.

Greece jumped out to a 16-4 lead early in the first quarter as Germany got off to a poor shooting start. But in the second quarter the Deutschland hoopers tightened up their perimeter defense and remembered how to shoot. They ate into Greece's lead, outscoring them 25-15 in the second quarter and managing to tie the score 36-36 at halftime. From there, Germany was able to steadily build a lead that rivaled the one Greece had on them early in the game while Greece struggled to get the ball through the basket.

The standout stars for Germany were Franz Wagner (18 points, three rebounds, two assists) and Dennis Schroder (13 points, eight rebounds). Both made a number of critical plays, but the most memorable was the late-game dagger Schroder hit from downtown to give Germany a 15-point lead, their biggest of the day.

So? Of course they'll do OK here and there

And they haven't won squat in basketball yet

Overall golds, and overall medals, they are way down the list

Among Western European countries, they lag WAY behind smaller countries like Britain and France, and also trail Italy and Netherlands

Germany used to dominate the Olympics. East Germany had the most robust cheating operation. Not sure why Germany sucks now.


Woke takes work ethic and fight out of the people. Look at California. What happened to them? Liberal leadership sucks the life out of once great lands. Germany has had a woke leader in AM for a while. Liberalism is a disease. Diseases usually kill you. Why we are fighting the cancer of wokism in this next election. Lose it due to fake votes and unregistered voters and we will soon be the Schmitz's

Their population is terminal. There will be tons of empty homes soon in small towns across the country. That's even after a giant influx of immigrants in the 90s.

France is now vying with Great Brittan to become the athletic powerhouse of Europe.

France won the 2018 World Cup in soccer. They are going for the World title in basketball.
France has a chance to shock the world on Saturday in the Gold Medal game against the United States.
They will have the two biggest players on the court in Rudy Gobert and Victor Wembenyama.

Germany was undefeated in basketball prior to their loss to France.
I still don't agree with the OP that Germany is all of sudden an athletic wasteland.
10th in the entire world in total medals is pretty damn good.

And?
The German Women won the Bronze Medal in the 4x100M relay.
The Germans were actually winning at the beginning of the anchor leg because of near perfect hand offs.
10th in the world in terms of medals is nothing to be ashamed of.

Germany's demise is greatly exaggerated.

1. USA
2. Great Brittain
3. Germany

I've spent a good amount of time in Germany between studying abroad in school and traveling for work. A lot of their male population was lost during WW2. Since then, most of the men raised there have been essentially taught to be apologetic and not masculine. I think that probably has a lot to do with it

Plus, as Robin Williams said, they killed all their funny people.
