The 2018 Winter Olympics finished in February. I've always been confused by the sports included in the two types of Olympics. Basketball, wrestling, boxing, gymnastics and many other indoor sports are really winter sports. Even volleyball (but not beach volleyball!) is normally played in the winter months. It seems like they should be in the Winter Olympics. A lot of people would complain but if major league sports teams can be moved from one conference or league to another (Astros from the National League to the American League, Seahawks from NFC to AFC then back to NFC), why couln't Olympic sports be moved?
Maybe it would be easier to just rename the Winter Olympics to be the Snow and Ice Olympics. Then, maybe, the Summer Olympics could be called just The Olympics with the Snow and Ice Olympics being a special case of the Olympics.
I know it will never happen but that doesn't mean I'm not right :-)
