Look for the clues. . . . A. The chart shows that China is definitely closing the gap on the medal count between the US and Russia (although gold metals are what I'll really be looking for). B. If China is planning for an Olympic glory I'm sure they will do whatever it takes to get that win or face international shame. C. Most visiting athletes will not be naturally immune to Giardia lamblia, Entamoeba histolytica, and Cryptosporidium, therefore are more likely to become victims of the stomach flu or dysentery (just like anyone else who has crossed into the red for longer than a week). Just like here in Shanghai, those who drank from the Huangpu are those who can conquer the Huanpu. A + B + C = A Born Champion!

China will win no matter how many other athletes have to be disqualified or slightly poisoned and judges bribed/threatened.

>That table would be better if it was readable... You can see it. You just have to get really really close to the screen and squint really really hard :)

I want to see the table for just taking part, I reckon Great Britain do a lot better in that one.

There should only be one event: BEST NATION EVER! But we already know who wins that one. And by ever I mean in the future also.
