This list of Olympic medals by USA colleges is very cool. There are already almost 200 medals listed. I have always wanted the scoreboards to show two flags next to each name, first the country they are representing and secomd the country where they live and/or train. So many non-Americans athletes have the EEEEVIL (/s) USA as their country of choice.

Representing a country where a person has never lived but where one’s spouse or grandparents were born makes a mockery of representing one’s country.

Naomi Osaka, represents Japan although she hadn’t lived there since she was 3, and can barely even speak the language.
