What is it you need help with sir

>>155349373
The other counties … why don’t they try? And where is India?

>>155349354
Did you really need to claim over a 1000 gold medals?

>>155349354
half of your gold medals were won by Phelps

>>155349354
how many world cups tho?

>>155349392
that's not much of a put down is it

Four.

>>155349354
You waste a lot of money to be extremely good at sports no one cares about

>>155349390
They were promised to us 3,000 years ago. And if we don’t claim them, someone else will.

>>155349354
explain what?
why the US only manages to get 1 gold medal per 235.000 people while Norway gets three times as many?

>>155349354
Ussr, china - 100% doping.

>>155349448
Who gue?

>>155349448
There's only so many athletes allowed per country and only so many events, you faggots always use stupid arguments

>>155349448
>norway holds off the nazis for 62 days
>USA beats the nazis
>becomes the nazis
>makes SEVEN Police Academy movies
Damn you people are pathetic

Doping is only bad when Russia or China do.

>>155349506
Be honest, has your mom ever tried pink cocaine?

Who cares? Only thing that matters is football world cups. Simple as

>>155349354
>USSR still second
I miss them so much

>>155349735
>I miss them
Wow, really showing your age.

>>155349354
Now count by race

>>155349387
>The other counties … why don’t they try?
Because doping is bad for your athletes' health. "Other countries" care about that.

>>155349776
Im 44

>>155349354
dude you send like 548215268 athlete to every olympics

>>155349499
wtf is wrong with seven Police Academy movies?

>>155349354
Systemic use of PEDs by countries that think the Olympics is some sort of soft power competition

why are thirdies so bad at the olympics

reminder that cubans are the only latinx who are good at the olympics
brazil is pathetic, barely above argentina with 5x their population

>>155349938
Cuba like the other countries have a political reason to treat this as a soft power competition and diverge money that would be more productive somewhere else into training athletes and doping the fuck out of them to prove a point "at the world stage"

>>155349354
How many of those are from swimming?

>>155350005
sorry you're poor and bad at the olympics, the canonical battleground of international sport
we know you desperately wish you were good at them as confirmed by you hosting it :)

>>155349938
Correct me if I’m wrong, but none of these monkeys can actually speak Latin.

Damn, Finland is pretty impressive for such a small population

>>155350129
In was thinking the same thing. These mofos never even see water in liquid form.

>>155349354
Swimming and track & field are unfairly represented. If your country is good at those you can easily get like ten medals in a couple of days of competing, but you're good at a team ball sport you may get one (1) medal for participating in a tournament that lasts the entire event.

>>155349938
all from real sports like boxing & wrestling too, no swimming or T&F statpadding

>>155349354
It's like you send twice as many athletes as china.

Oh wait you literally do.

>>155349418
That's for women.

You know you have to qualify to make the olympics right? Lmao

>>155349354
The Soviets and East Germany need removing completely.

>>155350752
Doesnt change a thing

>>155349830
Always funny to see Germans coping when their delusions of grandeur get shattered

>Be American
>Be swimmer
>Get a medal for the 100m freestyle, 200m freestyle, 4x100 freestyle relay, 4x100 mixed freestyle relay, 7x125m half-breaststroke/half-butterfly inverted mixed relay

(We're doing the same thing.)

Well, well, well...

>>155350752
Problem chud?

>>155351909
I don't see why they can't distribute the Soviet gold medals to the athletes respective country at the time. I.e. if a Ukrainian won, classify it as Ukrainian etc etc

If I had my way, the olympics would have just one medal in total, for the best athlete overall.
Athletes compete individually, no team or nation.

Point-based system where you have to do:
>400m run
>10k run
>1k open water swim
>archery
>fencing
>wrestling
>horse racing
>sailing
>weight lifting
>chess

You can't do eugenics or performance enhancement drugs that cover all that at the same time.

>delusions of grandeur
Saying that German athletes don't dope isn't "delusions of grandeur". It's just stating a pretty obvious fact. Most countries don't dope nowadays. You guys are the exception.

>>155352793
>Americans are.....LE DOPING. That's why they beat us!
Ok buddy, now go cry in the kiddy corner with the rest of the sub-athlete countries

>>155349476
A larger population means you have a larger pool to choose your best athletes from, retard.

>>155352842
>That's why they beat us!
You really think anyone cares that you "beat" them?
Reminder that this thread was literally made by an American with clear "illusions of grandeur" over a pretty meaningless stat. Then some guy asked a question, and I gave an answer. An accurate answer nonetheless. And you got quite agitated over that. Truly the "American way", innit?

>>155349354
Why are we on this list? We are a winter olympics nation.

>>155349354
Looks like the US is pretty even with Europe

>>155349830
go look at the women's all-time list for the 400m and 800m, look up what those women looked like, and apologize for this retarded post

>>155352793
this retard doesn't even know how athletics training works. most of the major countries don't have national organizations under which athletes train. In fact, our biggest teams all have international athletes among them. Doping isn't carried out at the national level in athletics. Yet here you are talking out your ass, making yourself look clueless.

>>155352897
Kek!
It's not a deluaion of grandeur if it's reality. Check the chart again. Reality is brutal ik :)

>>155352946
>look at the women's all-time list for the 400m and 800m, look up what those women looked like
I don't get your point. Not an expert on runners. All I heard was this Florence Joiner chick doping a few years ago, I think.
Anyway, what do they look like? Other than slim and muscular?

>>155352958
>most of the major countries don't have national organizations under which athletes train.
Now that's outright false. Even small nations have organized structures for their major sports.

>>155353016
>not a deluaion of grandeur if it's reality
Case in point. You care way too much about numbers. While accusing me of caring too much. That's a clear case of projection.

>>155349354
>splitting Germany in 5 to make sure we aren’t second

>>155353102
>Germany
>East Germany
>Silesia and Prussian territory lost to Poland
What are the other two?

>>155353102
No one wanted a third one.

>>155353102
In two at max, anon. Let's not do this whole historical revisionism bull.
And ironcially, getting split in two means having more athletes in the competition overall, rather than having athletes from both sides compete to qualify for the same spots.
Besides, the DDR/GDR comes with its very own controversies quite similar to those of the CSSR (which occupies the second place right now).
All those tables really are too much of a mess to clean up. And they are meaningless in the end.

>>155349354
It's mostly stat padding in swimming.

>>155349354

>itt: when America wins, it doesn't count mmkay?

whew

>>155353209
They don’t even count the current FRG and the pre-unification FRG, then they also split the unified team. The GDR is debatable, but come on, this is pretty disingenuous. At the very least, all FRGs should count. And then we are second already

>>155353272
USSR (not a real country), UK (4 countries in 1) and China (cheaters) don’t count either, hence France is number 1

>>155353390
>They don’t even count the current FRG and the pre-unification FRG
Really? I'd have assumed that the "Germany" entry in the OP pic combines both of these. Otherwise, wouldn't both need to appear separately in that pic?
Not sure how the unified team is listed, but it was such an insignificant blip in history that it shouldn't matter much in the big picture.

>>155353142
It is listed separately as
>German Empire (1896-1912, 1928-1936 (banned 1920 and 1924)
>Federal Republic of Germany (1952)
>Saarland (1952) (won no medals)
>Unified German Team (1956-1964)
>Federal Republic of Germany (1968-1988)
>German Democratic Republic (1968-1988)
>Federal Republic of Germany (1992-today)

This medal count only includes the latter
However, it isn’t IOC-official, I think. The IOC stopped officially keeping count of medals long ago since it is against the Olympic spirit in their eyes. That’s also why some countries count total medals while others go by golds and use the others as tiebreakers, or some others have point systems

>>155353493
They still won 28 golds

>>155349453
So does the USA.

>>155349453
Everyone roided and roids
Though Germany for example might currently be one of the few countries to actually try to be clean at all costs for virtue signal points. And it shows in the results

>>155352674
we could call it the 10 Athletics Contest
maybe something shorter and punchier

>>155353513
I see, to be honest I thought he was complaining about 'potential' medals from Germans livingg in separated territories but it hadn't crossed my mind how many iterations of Germany actually existed over the history of the Olympics, and that they would all be counted separately. Saarland getting to compete is a funny bit of trivia.

>>155353578
We are super strict in terms of roid control, cant say that about the USA and other nations, they have no incentive to do so.

>>155353698
Also the burgers invest a lot more money into sports than we do, that also has to be said.

>>155353513
>Saarland (1952) (won no medals)
Shocker!
