Basketball was created by a Canadian (as something to keep Rugby players occupied during the winter months), baseball is an amalgamation of old British folk games, and forerunners of American football were played by Egyptians; the Greeks, Romans and Chinese, some as early as 2500b.c.e., more recently, it's a direct descendant of Rugby.

So in essence, you have no one to blame but yourselves.

Right... I'm off to watch a nice non-US sport to keep myself entertained!
