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.
My point was about short track skating and snowboardcross. Clearly these are athletes and usually the best racer wins,but they are much more at the mercy of their competitors skill and sportsmanship than in most sports.Yes,people run into each other in track(ask Mary Decker),but is unusual where as in the above sports it is usual.
