There is an obvious reason for this that is lacking in the other throws, which I think we could be just as competitive in. This is not to say that were it not for X the USA would be crushing all comers, but we would at least be making a decent showing. Now quickly, whinge about drugs.
It's not my fault Barnes is a drugs cheat.
I'm just an impartial observer trying to figure out why the record hasn't been broken for 22 years. Perhaps the athletes these days are more honest? Being a dirty, lying drugs cheat takes some gumption. Maybe we just raise them better these days.....?

Powerlifting isn't popular because it's 'exercise' (cf. Kenny Powers on exercise vs. sport) and most people don't want to spend a great deal of time exercising to look like powerlifters. Say what you will about Crossfit, but the 'ideal' Crossfit body is a lot closer to what most people think is going to get them pussy/dick on the reg.
