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.

    Who would have wagered that the Canadian men's hockey team ( wait a minute, that's a oxymoron ) would finish out of medal round and get shut out in 3 games? Guess they left Turin under a shroud of controversy...........sorry couldn't resist. Go Suomi Go!!!
