for all four-man, two-man, and two-woman bobsled competitions, the team ahead after the third run has won 100 percent of the time. The fourth run of an international bobsled competition, then, is the most meaningless event in all of sports


I just watched the US get bronze by .03 seconds the other night. It was right down to the wire. So that pretty much destroys that point. It wasnt for gold, but it was for a medal so the point remains.

Yeah I thought there were some holes in the argument. I would rather if he went into more detail about what these guys are actually doing to go faster. I think that's more of the point - I'm watching this thing fly down the tube while the time ticks up. No clue about strategy or technique or anything else.
