But shit if it does, we will have what.. 2 years MAX to prep for ANOTHER olympics. Granted we have all the infrustructure put into place but it will require a lot of things to come together for that to happen.

You guys know that Sochi is designed and built by SNC Lavlin. If they fail or Russia fails to pay, I don't think the world will be ready to celebrate even if Sochi fails and it is hosted again in Vancouver (I honestly think the world will be embroiled in a war for that to happen).
Let it go, revisit the Olympics in a decade or 2. Say Vancouver 2030... or we can do Vancouver 2018.. since 18 is really lucky in Chinese.

Sochi will be ready for the Olympics. Russia will spend whatever it takes for the city to be ready for the 2014 games.
At this moment they do not have any venues ready in the city itself, and their mountain ski resort, Krasnaya Polyana needs a lot of work as well.
My company has a few projects on the go in Sochi along the boardwalk, as well as Adler and I can say first hand that they have a longggg way to go.

WTF... http://uk.news.yahoo.com/22/20100303...n-ca02f96.html
POLICE POWERS
Police will have powers to enter private homes and seize posters, and will be able to stop people carrying non-sponsor items to sporting events.
"I think there will be lots of people doing things completely innocently who are going to be caught by this, and some people will be prosecuted, while others will be so angry about it that they will start complaining about civil liberties issues," Chadwick said.
"I think what it will potentially do is to prompt a debate about the commercial nature of the Games. Do big sponsors have too much influence over the Games?"

i don't think so....I don't think that's ever happened....however, there's always a first time. Think of the amount of face lost by the Russians if that happened...

If it did happen, do you think that instead of asking for resignations, Putin would be asking for firing squad executions?

If that were the case, i would think that most would die during torture, and the remaining ones have their organs taken out and sold on the black market to recoup the lost funds.
