^ to be fair, those pictures can be from anywhere. Unless there is a video of it all with the building etc, pictures are just pictures. I could post a picture of dog shit and say that was found in my living room.

To be honest, I'm tired of all the bashing on the Sochi Olympics. Sure, there was some shit that wasn't done. But have any of these bashing news articles made mention of how much actually was completed? Including a brand new highway that includes dozens of new bridges. Virtually nothing existed where it now does, including the stadiums and other buildings.

Let's not forget that Vancouver also had it's own share of problems leading up to our own Olympics.

There will always be bitching about anything. They are under the spotlight and that goes with the territory. With Vancouver, the DTES was a major issue/eye sore.

The biggest problem I have with the Olympics is that it is the biggest Hypocritical organization in the world. An organization filled with cheaters (athletes and committees), and scandal.

Bingo! I think we can be a little more sympathetic here, having gone through pretty much the same thing four short years ago... okay, maybe not the shared toilets, but really... you had the British press going on for days leading up to it about how it was raining and the whole Games was going to be a dismal failure because of it... others latching onto the failed protest the first Saturday morning as evidence of an anarchistic society gone mad...

From the ACTUAL coverage video so far, the facilities looks spectacular and things seem to be going pretty smoothly.

Maybe in a school zone, but on Hwy 1, that should be the speed limit all the time.

sure its good to build infrastructures, like highways and bridges. but when it costs 9.4billion(200million per kilometer) for it? not only that they booted people out of their land with some new Olympic law, and left them homeless to make that highway. why the fuck should people not question it? theres a lot more than just the pictures that are making people bash this olympics.

The media blows it out of proportion for sure. But I am having a hell of a laugh at some of these(real or not) therefore I wanna see more

How much did they go over budget, like $20-30 Billion?

Crazy.
