Sick uniforms. Bring home the gold medal Team Canada!

Did the opening ceremonies already happen or when is it scheduled for?

Isn't the opening ceremony tomorrow morning at 8 am pacific?

Ovy tonight on the constant bashing of the games "Why you look for bad things"

So true. We just couldn't let Russia have the games.

The media has destroyed the party/vibe aspect and sabotaged the experience for the athletes.

Kinda sad.

Seems legit

There were a lot of negatives leading up to the vancouver games too. Hopefully once the actual competitions get going, the focus will be on the competitions and hopefully none of these negatives really comes up anymore.

You would be surprised on how we hide cell towers here in the city, a lot of places you would hardly notice them around you.

That is pretty hilarious though, showing it to my techs tomorrow morning, lol.

That's not bad, actually. At least it looks like someone did their job properly. lol



On the topic of the Sochi photos circulating around the internet, keep in mind some of them aren't actually real...

Lol. well if it sucks, it sucks. Don't be a bitch about it, ovi. Man up and say my country dropped the ball.

on the eve of the opening ceremonies..
youtubed any random clip

T- minus 35 mins until opening ceremony.

Russian Response to Sochi Problems Goes Creepily Wrong

lol sochi has video surveillance in showers, and people think China is bad :whistle:

They were quite big negatives too. Not so much the structural gaffes that we're "seeing" in Sochi, but IIRC the British media were saying that Vancouver2010 venues and layout were the worst they had ever seen. Then the unfortunately events at the sliding center added to the pile of criticisms.

But once the opening ceremonies started, you rarely heard a critical piece written about Vancouver (and still don't).

we never provided such appalling conditions... and they better not be killing those stray dogs as reported..

I know you love dogs. I do to. But what do you think they are doing with all the strays that are wandering town. Rounding them up, only to be released back into society once the hoards of athletes and journalists leave. :confused:


Russian officials are killing the stray dogs. Its no secret. We do it in Canada too.

what I mean to say is, there are obviously better options than to simply slaughter them.

cheering the team on from the other side of the world!
Go Canada Go!!!

Social media has really ruined everything and created this big society of hate

I'm sure the conditions are fucked up around there but also I'm sure the areas most frequented are mostly complete. These photos coming out are akin to taking a picture of a high rise in downtown Vancouver during 2010 and saying "lawls Vancouver isn't ready"

I think Russia was just over ambitious with their development. That CBC passionate eye documentary lays it out quite well and says that a vast majority of the development while the construction companies say it's a "games project" has moreso to do with selling condos to the rich after the games tha anything to do with athletes or spectators of the games

We also have towers hidden as trees. My friend consults on supplying power for them and you are right there are some creative and cool designs out there
