To be announced. The 2010 Winter Olympics were chosen in 2003 to be in Vancouver, Canada and the 2014 Winter Olympics were chosen in 2006 to be in Sochi, Russia. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Winter_Olympics#The_future
The US is doing very well in the medal count and stands in 5th place overall. With thousands of athletes from dozens of countries, that is doing very well.
It does not appear that Billie Jean King is sick. She had been appointed to represent the US in the 2014 Winter Olympics. Unfortunately she had to decline due to the ill health of her mother who passed away in February 2014.
Summer Olympics do not have a bobsled team. That will be the 2014 Winter Olympics
Yes. NBC has the contract to broadcast in the US.
No. The Winter Olympics occur every four years, but are separated from the Summer Olympics by two years. There was a Winter Olympics in 2006 (Turin, Italy) and the next Winter Olympics will be held in 2010 in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. The 2014 Winter Olympics will be held in Sochi, Russia.
The US won 9 gold, 9 silver, and 7 bronze at the 2006 Winter Olympics.
Not all the nations represented at the Olympics are 'sovereign states' which is what most people think of when they think of a country. American Samoa, and Guam for example are unincorporated US territories. They are under US jurisdiction and are considered US citizens. However they represent themselves at the Olympics rather than contribute to the US national team. There are other unincorporated territories and dependencies that also represent themselves.
