If it wasn't for the explosion you probably wouldn't even know a bomb went off.

I'm calling bullshit. I'm sure you could go to any city that has been a host and find the same kind of crap. This is just some leftwing moron trying to write a hit piece on Russia because they're mad about the gays.

Although the progressive wrath on Mother Russia is a hilarious and ironic thing to behold, I think there's actually something to it this time.

For one example, two oligarch brothers who were childhood friends of Vladimir Putin received $7 billion worth of contracts. One was for an undersea pipeline, the final cost of which broke down to about $5.5 million per kilometer, or almost four times as much as the European average.

In another case, a 31-mile rail and road link to the site of the ski and snowboard events cost $8.7 billion, more than the entire cost of the last Winter Olympics. For that price tag, one Russian magazine calculated, the road could have been paved with a centimeter of beluga caviar.

If you had ever seen a completed Russian nuclear submarine or Missile site you would know that that is par for the course in Russian construction. Above par in some areas.
Last time I was there I wondered why we were afraid of Russia for so long -- the only thing in our hotel that worked was the phones --and only because they had been looted from Germany after WWII (really).

To what end?  The Olympics are gonna happen no matter what anybody says.  We are going to have thousands of eye witnesses to how it is going to look in addition to all the cameras.  I just don't see somebody putting forth the effort when it will change nothing.

Hell you could end up being correct, but see above statement.

Have we figured out exactly which 2 ships the Navy has put in the vicinity?

I know the Turks won't let something as big as an LHD through, but I'm hoping there's at least a LPD around... we're gonna need the sealift when TSHTF.

The article was critical of a lack of grass.

I'd be more worried about a lack of snow.
