这个有意思 。。
Through 11 days of the Olympics, China leads the United States in the
official IOC medal count. But in Fourth-Place Medal's "real" medal count, a
tally that ignores judged activities masquerading as sports, Team USA has a
commanding lead over its Asian counterparts.
[Related: Olympic medals' monetary value may shock you]
Our real medal count ignores Olympic disciplines like gymnastics and diving
and instead focuses on sports where winners are determined on the field of
play. When Usain Bolt or Michael Phelps wins a race, the result is objective
and undeniable. Gabby Douglas winning the women's all-around was one of the
most memorable moments of the first week. But why did she win a gold over
Victoria Komova? Because some judges said she was 0.259 better? It wouldn't
be so insulting if we weren't the rubes who accept it like it's real.
Gymnastics wins aren't victories, they're subjective decisions based on
objective-sounding rules.
So factor all of that out when talking about medal counts. China isn't ahead
, the United States is. When you factor out all the judging nonsense in
gymnastics, diving, trampoline and judo, Team USA is the decisive leader.
[Related: 22 facts about Michael Phelps' 22 medals]
The bulk of the difference comes from diving and a trampoline. Chinese
divers won five golds and six overall medals in London (compared to zero and
three for Americans) and four overall medals in trampoline (Americans
earned a goose egg).
We've heard the arguments: Tennis has chair umpires and basketball has
referees. A bunch of judges peer at the target after every arching round to
see whether an arrow is on or over the line. Every sport on the Olympic
slate has some judge or official making decisions that can affect the final
outcome. But except in very rare occasions -- like a gold-medal basketball
game in Munich -- they don't pick the winner. Like rubes, we mindlessly
accept that Jordyn Weiber was somehow determined to be 0.232 worse than
Douglas in the gymnastics all-around qualification. When diving judges give
a 9.0 instead of an 8.5, it's treated like Missy Franklin touching the wall
first.
No more! The real medal count cuts through the nonsense and politics.
Winning a competition on the field of play is the only way to get to our
medal stand. |
