BigWillieStyle 662 Report post Posted March 1, 2010 Would the fact that there are more events and henceforth, more medals available have anything to do with any of this? Just Thinking. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But hey, I'm just impressed that you think the US didn't spend at least the same amount of money to train, equip and send their athletes. Did you think your athletes paid their own way?

I may be wrong about this but I was under the impression that the US is actually the only country that doesn't fund their Olympic athletes in some way.

pockets 9 Report post Posted March 1, 2010 i think US is gonna be a bigger player in Winter Oly because we can actual compete in the Nordic events now which we use to be the laughing stock in. Congos to both countries for all the medals they won Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

timothy1997 0 Report post Posted March 1, 2010 But you didn't have to pay for the venues and the ceremonies and whatnot either Yes but the USA spends the least amount of GOVERNMENT money on athletes (maybe $0). The money comes from endorsements like Ralph Lauren whom gave money to the athletes in return for the athletes wearing their clothing at the opening and closing ceremony.
