What Is a Sochi? Everything You Should Know About the 2014 Olympic Site (http://gawker.com/what-is-a-sochi-everything-you-should-know-about-the-2-1517362657)

Good intro article about Sochi and why the olympics are there.

Apparently its a mess so far, but Ill be tuning in for some events.

Any interest? Im just as interested in the events as the epic fails going on there.

I love the winter Olympics. The sports are far more intriguing to me than the summer games. The only thing I like of the summer games are track and field and swimming. I watched the qualifying slopestyle snowboard last night and thought it was a nice addition. My wife used to compete in figure skating and the new team competition is nice for casual fans like me who don't understand point evaluations.

I'll be watching the hockey tournament, and even though it's cool to hate on the sport I'll probably check out a little curling action even though I don't understand it beyond "get the heavy puck thing in the circle." I'm also going to check out a little snowboard action if I get the chance.

who hates on curling? It's one of the best events they have going.

Curling is awesome. They have a local club around DC that I'd like to go and try at some point.

Capitalist Russia is much like Capitalist America it seems.

I was just talking to my coworkers today about the Winter Olympics, and it felt like as soon as curling came up they were dismissing it as something that shouldn't be an Olympic sport. I hate that. Like just because it's not popular here doesn't mean there aren't people somewhere else in the world that cherish it like we cherish football, or nascar, etc.

Well is it really on the NASCAR or football level in any country? I went to the Caribbean and talk to the Europeans about sports, it's soccer that seems to have the most passion.
