no they don't...
canada brought waaaaay less that usually and we sent 200... greece sent 400, so did america... that's already 1000.. only 3 countries... around 10,000 athletes compete... but yea, 2,000 is waaay too much... not fair. then in vancouver, we'll bring 5,000!
No medals? Oh well, that's okay. We just need to come and show the support of the international games and world peace.

Yea, that way more people can claim to be athletes

China will dominate in 2008
I think that was the plan. China's athens Olympic team is 80% newbie and the average age is about 23. I've read in a couple newspapers that Athens was essentially to season them up in preparation for Beijing.
Damn SBS didn't broadcast the taekwondo matches.
GO VIETNAM!!!!! KICK THEIR ASSES yo?
lolz it's okay, no medel = no harm done.

hmm.. we have over 30 millionpeople here.. just picking people off the streets should be okay... we could make entire heats made of canadians.. one of them's bound to get a medal.

Not anyone can just compete in the Olympics. You have the qualify for the Olympics first (at world championships). Eitherway the US always qualifies the most atheletes.
China only has about 350 atheltes at Athens I believe.
