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 mean the Koreans like the short track and do good in it. You can be shorter in height unlike swimming where you have to be over 6' foot for a guy. I was replying to Bryan Gumbel that made a remark about the winter olympics being too lily white. I was saying that short track has a lot of different people and there are a look of Koreans and others good at it.
