Olympics...sports vs events?

My husband consider Events as gymnastics and diving since it is up to a judge to award points versus a Sport which is won by the fastest time or the farthest distance or the highest weight. What do you think?

I agree and think actually the games need streamlined some. Subjective judgement in some events can be the luck of the draw, depending on what the judge in particular deemed the quality of the performance.
