Winter Olympics as a game of chance

I love watching most sports and have enjoyed the Winter Olympics. I wonder if I am the only one disturbed however by how important chance seems to be in many winter events. I am particularly thinking about short track skating and snowboard cross. The Olympics should be about being the best,not the luckiest.

    I agree the new scoring system in figure skating helps some people. Take Sasha Cohen who is better at spins and spirals than jumps. Sasha is slightly in first place after the short, and both Irina and Arkawkola are just behind. Anyone of them can win it.
