And since there are no more actual athletic competitions to judge, the only thing that we geeks have to argue about is the numbers. By some measures, the US was the standout performer of the 2012 summer Olympics. With more golds, more silvers, and more total medals than any other nation, it sure looks like the US has a lock on the gold medal for most athletic country, right? Not so fast.
