Japan is irrelevant in sports

>NZ
Holy cringe

Financially? Prett sure yeah. Definitely not relevancy wise, Japan barely cares about divegrass

I think you forgot one.

>has the most world baseball classic titles in your path

Are they clones?

>forgets a country that is in the top 10 in medals in winter olympics and wins numerous world and european titles in shitloads of sports.

Sweetie...

6 japs in the MLB
>shoehei ohtani
>masahiro tanaka
>yu darvish
>kenta maeda
>yusei kikuchi
>yoshihisa hirano

New Zealand dominate rugby, which is the only sport they really care about. Also were in the two previous cricket world cup finals.

Yeah, I should have included France since you guys won the soccer world cup and been in the rugby world cup finals twice.

>winter olympics
>biggest sport is soccer and no notable achievements in it
Please shut the fuck up.

>winter olympics

>120 million people
>baseball is their most popular sport
>domestic league generats over a billion dollars a year
>can only get 6 people into the MLB when even countries like Venezuela probably have the same if not more people in the MLB.
They seem pretty shit, lad. Let's be real here. I like Japan as much as the next guy but they suck arse at sport.
Soccer is massive there too and they have this huge rivalry with Australia that no one here even knows about. We regularly thrash the rest of Asia at the Asian cup and soccer barely breaks the top 10 for sports here.

Why do they look similar?

Just because >NZ is trash at winter sports doesn't make it irrelevant you nigger

Also:
Olympic titles in volleyball, handball, waterpolo, field hockey, swimming.

not only winter olympics. A country with 17mil people. How many sports are u good at. Fucking animal nigger.

by my count there are 89 Venezuelans that have played in the MLB this year. some of that im sure has to do with geographic proximity and the nips having their own serviceable baseball league, as well as the poverty factor a la brazil in soccer

Wait until Keijo becomes real

>New Zealand dominate rugby, which is the only sport they really care about
So then put us in your list next for hockey ya simp

Combined summer and winter medal count:
>Australia: 512
>Netherlands 470
More than you, apparently.

Now if we count only the Olympics that people care about:
>Australia: 497
>Netherlands: 285
Your country is a joke, ald.

Yeah, I should have. Forgot Toronto also had a team that won the NBA and even the American teams that with the Stanley Cup are filled with Canadians kek.

based obsessed with Japan Chilean

Updated list of relevant sport nations:
>England
>Brazil
>Germany

imagine being dutch lads and knowing that really it's all just been downhill for the last 500 years and it's not getting better

umm sweetie they've won some gold medals at the winter olympics okay?

how could I ever forget the competition that stops the world

>How many sports are u good at.
hmm let's see
>GOAT at Australian Rules Football
>top 2 for International Rules Football
>good at tennis and golf despite neither having strong followings
>fine at cycling
>elite and muscular per capita olympic medal tally and the 2nd best swimming nation in the world
>undisputed GOAT at cricket
>passable at soccer despite literally no one but wogs following it
>passable at rugby union and historically quite good literally nobody outside of a handful of private all boys schools in 2/6 states following it
>GOAT at rugby league

what's the Netherlands good at then mate? skiing?

we're great at olympics without even including per capita. We're literally 8th in the world for total medal count. Only countries above us have at minimum twice our population, with most being 10 times ours.
Also, don't forget
>good F1 drivers
>almost 10 australians in the NBA despite basketball being irrelevant here
>indy 500 winner is australian
>multiple god tier kickers in the NFL
>australians in the NHL despite us not even having ice in australia

>Asian cup champions in soccer
>literally by far the GOAT rugby league country

All of them 3rd world countries too, hmmmm

The MLB only has that many latin americans due to how cheap it is to import these poor socialist latin players. On top of that, the MLB does not want to diversify their players like the NBA, they are unironically ran by white racists who want to keep the league stuck in the 1950s.

The Japanese league actually is very resistant to letting their players over to mlb. They view poaching as an existential threat.
