Why doesn't football eat up all the male athletes in the US? Maybe because there are 10 times more of them?
And soccer does eat up a lot of athletes elsewhere. You'll notice that the only nation that's really strong in both soccer and winter Olympic events is Germany, who just happen to have a strong tradition in winter sports and grab a ton of medals from a select few sports that they dominante.
