I think because anything classified as a sporting event it requires a certain degree of athleticism, skill, practice, dedication, and (in the case of team sports) team-work; add in an opportunity to test your levels against others to find out who is best and you have a sporting event(you mentioned NASCAR in your question details... driving a car in a big circle for a couple of hours doesn't require much athleticism either, but it is still considered a sport, right?)\n\nNow why it is considered an Olympic event... well, it is a sport with growing popularity in many countries that participate in the Olympics (Canada, many of the northern European countries, and a growing fan-base in the northern United States), and the Olympics have been a fairground for countries to show off new and/or unusual sporting events from around the world (Ice Dancing... the poor-man's figure skating OR "I'm just doing this until Disney-on-Ice calls me in for an interview!").  Some of the events catch on and become world-wide phenomenons, others fizzle and die.\n\n<Added>I added athleticism to the list of skills needed because there is a degree of athleticism to curling that you don't find in other strategy games (chess, for example). I mean, watch the curlers in the Olympics. They are running around on ICE for Pete's sake! Any time I step on ice I fall on my... personality... but these guys are running up and down the ice as if they were walking in the grass! And it isn't just the shoes they wear. I saw a documentary on the U.S. Olympic curling team and they showed people trying to do it and they were falling all over the place.

james,\n\nA country wins ONE medal for each event.  If there are say, two members to a team, ex. two-person luge, each member will get a gold medal.  Statistically however, one medal per event.

I fell on ice last year walking out to my car and I cut the tip of my chin on the ground - I got a small cut and it bled like crazy.  I felt like an idiot.  But nobody saw me.  At least that I know of.

Have you gone to a doctor yet?  It might be a sprain or a strain.  That can take anywhere from a few weeks to a year to heal.  I would stay off of it, and use ice if it starts to hurt too badly.  20 minutes with the ice, and 1 hour without it.  Do not keep the ice on for too long, because that can cause damage in and of itself.  I hope you heal up soon, babe!

Figure skating is a sporting event in which individuals, mixed couples, or groups perform spins, jumps, and other moves on ice skates, often to music. There are international competitions for figure skating, such as the World Championships, and figure skating is also an official event in the Winter Olympics. \n\nThe winter Olympic events include:\n\n* singles for both men and women;\n\n* couples skating with a couple consisting of a man and womn; and\n\n* ice dancing with a couple  requiring more choreography.

Gone skiing.  In the present tense, it would be Let's go skiing.  To ski is a verb, not a noun.

RICE. Rest, Ice, Compression, Elevation. I'm a gymnast and I have hurt myself PLENTY of times from not warming up or warming up wrong. First of all, rest it and try not to use it as much as possible, if at all. Secondly, ice it. Not too much though, or your skin will start to hurt, lol. I think the recomended was like 20 on ice 10 off but that always seemed a little too much for me. Third, wrap it up with an ace bandage even though it will feel weird, those things work wonders. Elevation can be held off though... Kinda hard to elevate that injury heh. When it starts to feel better, and you can move it again without pain, stretch it a couple times a day to keep it limber, but only for a week or so. Hope I helped some, and good luck healing!

ice,  elevate your hand and watch it...if it just happenned you have to expect swelling...if the injury happened a few days ago u should get it looked at in case it has a clot   and the ice should b on for first 24 hrs,  like a half hour at a time every 2 hrs,  then warm soaks next couple days   the point is to increase the circulation to reabsorb the blood...u broke blood vessels in there

I don't even think figure skating should be a sport.  No offense intended to anyone, especially because I still consider figure skaters athletes, but it isn't a sport!  It's more a competition, like ballroom dancing or something.  You don't see ballroom dancing in the Olympics.

it's an icon of greatness.....it shows that you're at the pinnacle of your sport, only the best of the best are able to even try out to qualify for the olympics much less make it to the podium stand. On top of that, you're doing it for your country, so it stands for a lot of pride as well.

I am assuming you mean bruised.\nBut it in a splint to avoid further movement and injury.

A good rule is to use ice on the injury for 20 min, then off for 20 min, then ice again for 20 minutes in the first 24 hrs.  NO HEAT until you ready to start exercising again, it can cause the injury to swell/ hurt/ deteriorate if you start to soon though.
