Sochi Winter Olmpics Thread

[Dostoyevsky]

Not long to go now.

Off the back of Sarajevo's (former host) vote as the second most desire-able location to visit in Rough Guides list of "must-visit" cities in 2014, and the famous Torville and Dean Gold Medal at those games being given much attention in this week's press, it's time the countdown commenced.

What do we anticipate.....

Now here's where it gets dark, very very dark

This games will not be completed.

Russia's determination not to meld into the rancid nation-wrecking project that has befallen every other European country will have dire consequences for itself. The perfect excuse - in the guise of Moslem fundamentalism in the restive Caucasus nations - will result in a series of catastrophic attacks upon these games. I emphasise, this will have nothing to do with tinpot guerrilla warlods in Chechyna, Dagestan and elsewhere perpetrating acts of violence - much as I'm sure they wish they could hoist their flags alongside such atrocities. These will be "false-flag" operations conducted by our own Zionist intelligence agencies hell bent on undermining Russian designs to usurp/expose their malfeasance.

You heard it here first.

I don't anticipate the Sochi games going beyond day 4.

Why would they do this?

Russia has been delivering repeated bloody noses to the outright scum who parasitized the post Soviet wealth and God almighty they've been delivering a come-uppance of sorts. This will not be countenanced by the elite who will seek to sabotage these games and ignoble Russian efforts to be a beacon of light in this sordid world.

Ah, Dossy, it's good to have you back.

I have a bad sense of foreboding about these Winter Olympics. I hope our own Shelley Ruddy (Wiltshire I believe, Pewsey?) has been well advised about the dangers.

Look at all the negativity propelled by our media whores like that execrable Stephen Fry, harking on about gay-rights and this Pussy Riot nonsense. We are being suckered into believing that Russia is a reprehensible nation of thugs and all around intolerant, suppressed individuals.

I hope to Goodness I am mistaken but I fear the whole jamboree of Russian hospitality will be obliterated by those with only rotten intentions as their daily bread.

We shall see...

 I've been quietly looking forward to this, in a sort of, it's good to see the levels of skill and courage involved in sports we didn't invent sort of way...but it's not for another month. Come on Dosser...you'd last less time than DMR if you got anywhere near a women.

Looking forward to the hockey! Lwts hope they get a few games in before everyone dies, hey?

Malfeasance ?
Is that Russian ?

You won't believe what I read in the paper this morning,
But it's true, there's no smoke without fire, their reporting never fails.

I just can't wait till it drops through the box in the morning,
It's my treat for the day, with the wife, she's still yawning,
As we read everyday, it's the truth, no distorting, never tales.

Stuck in Daily Mail Land,
Stuck in Daily Mail Land,
But you don't understand,

Some people knock it, I know, but for me it's the bible,
I believe every word guarantees my survival, I'm a fa-an.
I just don't care what the say, just be sure I don't listen,
To the lies that they say, that the paper's on a mission,
Cause the wife and me agree to ignore all the negatives we ca-an.

Stuck in Daily Mail Land,
Stuck in Daily Mail Land,
But you don't understand,

Stuck in Daily Mail Land,
Stuck in Daily Mail Land,
But you don't understand,

I never read all the rest, it's a test of my loyalty,
Don't need any more, I get bored with variety I'm sure.
You know I've read every day, come what may, since my puberty,
My Ma and my Pa used to swear it's validity,
How can you suggest, or molest, it's sincerity is pure.

Stuck in Daily Mail Land,
Stuck in Daily Mail Land,
But you don't understand.

Stuck in Daily Mail Land,
Stuck in Daily Mail Land,
But you don't understand.

Not that fussed about the Winter Olympics, to tell the truth.  But if they gave it the same music as Ski Sunday, then I'd be glued to it.

[Honkytonk]

Russia's still catching up with the rest of the First World as far as human rights and the protection of the individual goes. There are many historical reasons for this, but the fact remains.

Long as Putin holds any form of power that is not going to change.

[Chubbs]

was a big fan of ski jumping as a kid, so might try and catch some of that

[london_red]

Quite enjoy the winter Olympics. Got really into the ski cross/snowboard cross last time. None of this one at a time, how quick can you get to the bottom rubbish. Put 4 of the bastards at the top of a fuck off icy hill and see who turns up at the end.

[sonicyouth]

I'm looking forward to Norway dominating the cross-country.

Our top lady skier Chemmy Alcott, scrubs up quite well off the piste....now I think on her 3rd Olympics...she's finished around the top ten in the previous 2, which is mighty impressive for a Brit...very good commentator on Eurosport on the skiing as well.
