    If you have AT&T UVERSE they have an Olympic Channel 24/7 no commercials.  It's channel 1667 in the Cleveland area.

    Norway has long past won more Olympic Gold than any other country....including the USA.

    In Olympic history  ...not including the current Olympics it is:

    Norway   118 Gold  329 total medals

    USA  96 Gold  282  total

    The Summer Games of course is a different story:

    US has won  in history  1022 Gold and 2522   total medals

    Next is the now defunct USSR who won 395 Gold and 1010 total   (no doubt many by cheating)

    The extant country that is second is Great Britain  263 Gold  849 total.

    There are actually over 200 "countries" that have never won a single medal in an Olympics.  These are mostly smaller nations....a lot of Pacific Islands and the like, but....some bigger countries as well:

    Bangla Desh with over 100 million in population has never won even a bronze.

    Bolivia, El Salvador, Albania, Cambodia, Madagascar  and others.  See the link above.

    That USA gold count was in one Olympic game. The true spirit which I love is the little guys who just appreciate being there without a big Olympic committee getting them there with over 200 athletes, it's neat when they can win one metal.
