Dude, I thought you were smart.

but the rules don't allow for unlimited qualifiers from each nation.....

but you have 30x more candidates to choose from, hence a better chance to select better ones.

perhaps, but they limit how many can be selected. The US could easily sweep the medals in several events otherwise

Have you ever interacted with a person in a social situation?

the world will be a better place when you're dead

Wow, mature comment here.

thank you, new friend

Using the old anti-irony trick, huh? Good for you. Maybe at some point you could actually try to defend your argument, though

that's an ad hominem attack using the fat governor fallacy and I refuse to engage with your underwhelming trollishness any further

let me guess son, you. borrowed your sisters dictionary, copied some words down and think that makes you smart

your condescension and utter lack of respect for the science of rhetorical argument saddens and appalls me to my very core

You did not make any argument. BTW, didn't you say something about not arguing with me anymore? Did you change your mind?

even if we have multiple athletes capable of securing #Gold in various events, we can't send them all - rules don't allow It.

so sending your best isn't good enough?

which is why USA has 3x as many Golds as Hungary. And why population has no relevance given the rules.

whattttt? That makes no sense. That would be true if the entire population was specialized in every Olympic event.

not "specialized in", just "eligible" which is largely accurate.
