Are Spaniards the World's Most Athletic Race?

[GoldMedallist]

Netherlands never won anything, but they did invent modern football.

Inventing modern football >>> Winning WC's in 1930 and 1950 and then being completely irrelevant for the following 50 years.

They were a good team, that's true. But they weren't that great, that's why their lack of titles.

runner up in 1974 and 1978, losing both times with the host nation (germany & argentina) 1988 eurocup champions (amazing team)

Well Spain is not the consensus No.1 soccer team in this world...

[asu77golf]

Spain isn't a race, it's a country.

And 'NO' to what you were trying to ask.

[jjayfive]

you singled out a few sports and about 20 individuals does not make the entire country the most athletic.. there are more than 5 sports in the entire would.. a good gauge to use would be the OLYMPICS...
