Trying to find the answer for that myself, I found this article at this website: \nhttp://www.torino2006.org/ENG/OlympicGames/news/news_eng160276.html\n\nBasically, it says that Hubertus von Hohenlohe, who compets in skiing, was "the only Mexican who qualified and the Mexican Olympic Committee decided against sending him as a one-man team." - so, instead, they decided not to compete at all...\n...That is basically all that I've been able to find out.

Not at all, it shouldn't.\nIn fact, if it's been condemned by European countries, and Canada, Mexico shouln't have any other position about it.\nAltougth, we have to be very carefully about dealing on this matters because the dificulties on the Mexico-USA relation have been having on the last times.

Mexico could go very far as they have the best team they have ever had and they seem quite unified.  They are also capable of beating Brasil and any other powerhouse.  I won't be surprised to make it to the quarter finals.

Mexico has participated since 1924 and even hosted the games in 1968. Ana Guevara, the Mexican track and field athlete won a silver medal in the woman's 400m dash at the Athens games. Mexico has won medals in a number of events throughout the history of the games.

IT'S ALL A CONSPIRACY!  Seriously, I agree.  My question is why can't Mexico make their nation a prosperous democracy as well.  The differences between the U.S. and Mexico is staggering.

The national capital of Mexico is Mexico City.

Yes they are out of the WC, but they played very well and should be proud of their achievements and how they played against Argentina who I found a little disappointing last night. Congratulations to Mexico for a well hard fought game. They have done their nation proud.

It's definitely not the USA- Mexico is a lot tougher than us. I think it is Japan. (Because of the amount of people and the size of their country).

Many small countries cannot afford to take part in international sports.  And, if a country is small enough, it may not have all that many athletes at the world class level.

Mexica has no snow. They can't compete snow competitoins, if they can't practice.

I have tried to search on various sites, but everywhere it says "somewhere in Mexico". Seems quite strange. I looked up in many of the news articles but to no vain.\n\nTry contacting them by email.

Maybe the Americans can have there own Olympics because they seem to only want to play sports that are played by such a small amount of countries. Im sorry your dream is gone for the moment but lets try and even up the playing field and play something thats played at a competitive level in the other 90% of the non americanized parts of the world.
