you don't think that if they US sent 50 teams we would have won more medals? or if you reverse it. the EU only gets to send one team with the top three athletes in X event going? they would have fewer possible winners so they would end up with fewer winners/medals.

in the world of sports anything can happen. look at gymanstics alone. how often does the top ranked person foul up and not medal? some relatively unknown individual steps up and wins.

if we had 50 teams, we obviously would have won more medals.
