Germany - what does America having itself at the center of the universe have to do with this discussion? If anything we are lending extra credit to a primarily European sport. When Europeans make such comments it makes them look jealous of the US. We call it here 'sour grapes'. Not sure how the idiom translates. I lived in Germany for two years and heard this sometimes from certain individuals.
