I agree, more like 9.75 out of ten, but might change the score after seeing more pics.

It's not even fair. And then there's the whole Olympic gold medalist thing she's got going for her too.

Besides Neidermeyer and Pronger on D, we have a better team. Thornton, Morrow, and Heatley have been very well replaced by way better players. Perry, Getzlaf, and Nash are monsters. Crosby will rip it up. Except the Golden Goal, he didn't produce much in 2010. This 2014 team is STACKED so much that Subban is the odd D out, and Duchene and St Louis may not even play!

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.

Umm, when $50 Billion dollars is spent on something, I think people have a certain level of expectation. Especially when Vancouver 2010 was only about ~$7 Billion.
This is just an ignorant assumption, but i'm pretty sure it costs a lot less to build a building in Russia than it does in Canada...

Every Olympic games goes under a lot scrutiny, this isn't anything new. So why should this be any different for the most expensive games in Olympic history?

It's far harder to build in a place with almost no existing infrastructure opposed to an established modern city

Also most of the knitpicking is the equivalent to going from Vancouver to surrey, taking a picture of a high rise under construction and saying "omg Vancouver wasn't ready"

Outside of these border line journalists all the actual journalists you've heard/seen have almost nothing bad to say about the actual Olympic portions of the games.

Which makes you think why they were even approved the games in the first place.. Oh yea, it's the IOC.

Y'know, I couldn't find any really spectacular pics of her... but seeing her "live" on TV, she's one of those types, with that kinda smile, that just exudes a certain sexiness... like Kari Byron, you know, just comes across 20 times sexier in motion than in a still shot.

If anyone is watching womens Curling. Kaitlyn Lawes for Canada. She sat beside me at Christmas dinner and if it wasn't for the dinner being at my girlfriend's parents house we would totally be dating now. :thumbs:
