Do the skis count as part of the athlete? If not, I see no reason to have your legs spread that wide when the guy next to you is carrying sharpened sticks. Just saying...

The New York Times reports that Nadezhda and Maria were recently hauled into a local police station, and afterward told reporters they've been dogged by Russian authorities since they arrived, including repeated detentions. (The cops said the pair were being investigated in connection with a theft at a local hotel. Sure!)

Everything in Sochi is dog or tarp. Natural reaction is to beat it senseless. Can't fault them.

This is weird. A small country with 5 million inhabitants is leading the olympics. What drugs are they on?

EDIT: I get it. They're only competing in stuff where noone else bothers... Make you own niche, kinda.

I feel like this was less a 'hoax' and more of a conspiracy. If a news anchor falsifies information can they come out about it later and just be all, :lol::iamafag::respek::awesome:?
