民主体制不花钱，有没有？业余运动员对中国的举国体制不公平，有没有？

The U.S. Olympic Committee shelled out more than $232 million in 2008 to
help American athletes win 110 medals in Beijing -- the site of the previous
Summer Olympic Games. That's $2.1 million per medal, but doesn't include
the cash kicked in by each sport's governing body from sponsors, donors and
special events. For example, USA Basketball took a little less than $1
million from the USOC to send the men's and women's teams to China four
years ago, but spent $5.8 million overall on gold-medal efforts from LeBron
James, Diana Taurasi and company.
That's a lofty $2.9 million per medal, which is nearly five times what the U
.S. modern pentathlon and badminton programs spent on their Olympic programs
combined in 2008. The birdie smashers and five-sporters left empty handed,
but any medal those programs took home would have been the steal of the
games.
But the real question remains: How much can be spent on a single medal? The
answer: Almost the sky's the limit, it seems. We're talking about many
millions per medal. |
