Why doesn't the Olympics have an athlete of the Olympics ceremony.
I reckon it would be good. For every event they would give 10 PTS to the Gold Medalist, 8 to the silver medalist, 6 to the Bronze Medalist, 5 to 4th place, 4 to 5th place, 3 to 6th place, 2 to 7th place and 1 PT to 8th place.
For instance, in tonights 400m Freestyle the points would have been handed out like so:
10- Ian Thorpe
8- Massimilano Rosolino
6- Klete Keller
5- Emiliano Brembilla
4- Dragos Coman
3- Chad Carvin
2- Grant Hackett
1- Ryk Neethling
At the end of the games each athletes points are tallied and at the closing ceremony the Athlete of the games is announced. For teams sports all members of the team would get whatever points were handed out to their team. So for instance if Australia came 4th, then all 20 members of Australia squad would get 5 points. I think it would be unfair to divide the points up, because soccer players, basketballers, handballers, etc,. only get to compete in 1 event, while Swimmers, runners compete in several.
Generally, the winner of it would be an athlete or a swimmer.
what do you guys reckon about that idea??
