The Olympics happen every other year only because the winter and summer Olympics are staggered. Each still occurs only every four years. So, technically, the author of this strip is incorrect. But, yeah, winter and summer used to be both in the same year. They spread them out, of course, to make more money for sponsors.
The whole Olympic Movement thing is spoiled, anyway, when they’ve allowed professional players to play in the Olympics. It became less about amateur sport accomplishment then about individual national patriotism in the quest for the most medals.
