I don't. Olympics is olympics. The best from all countries compete and there has to be selections. Norway could potentially medal with 10-15 of their athletes in cross country skiing, but a lot of them are not chosen to go. It's a big advantage to compete in a country where your sport is popular and invested in. The Japanese guys have opportunities that skaters from smaller figure nations nations don't have. I have no problem with the rules.
That is very true. If really only the ones who could possibly medal would be allowed at Olympics, or Worlds for that matter, it would do nothing else but kill skating in the countries where it's already dying out.
And yes, in other disciplines it's the other way around. It's just the way the Games go, the way sports go. We have to either deal with it or be miserable.
