There is only one way to fairly compare pure athletic prowess from competitor to competitor.
Compete as in the first Olympics (or so legend tells us).
But swimming events only. Please do NOT do this for women’s basketball or baseball!
They say the original Olympics, all male, all the time. Spectators too.
There was the problem with a gold winning runner.
His coach was his mother! They noticed as SHE jumped the fence to congratulate HER son!
By the way, if you have never seen it before, you will not know what it is!
