[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's statistically unlikely that China will be able to win as many medals as the US (gold or overall). The US qualified more athletes for the Paris Olympics than any other country (592). China as fewer than 400. France Australia and Germany all sent more than China but they are not as dominant in any sports as China is in things like diving so we'll see.

Despite their strength in swimming Australia has fewer golds than the US and half as many medals overall.

I actually feel like the US just looks unbelievably dominant at these Olympics despite some specific instances where US athletes have been disappointed with outcomes. It makes you realize just how much of a financial and cultural hegemony  the US is. [b]We used to at least suck at soccer but then the US women got really good at it so you can't even say that anymore.[/b][/quote]

Don't worry, the US men like to remind Americans that we suck at soccer. It's U23, so we may have a chance, but the full USMNT will disappoint soon enough [/quote]
