Sochi 2014: The Onerous Olympics

Thanks to Twitter accounts like @SochiProblems and @SochiFails, sometimes it feels as though we’ve heard more about the problems with the Winter Olympics in Sochi than about the actual games themselves. We’ve seen more live tweets from journalists concerning their unfortunate accommodations than live winter sports, more articles about the lack of  people in the stands than countries’ standings in the games and heard about more risks taken by sponsors  than risks taken by skiers flying down 300+ foot ramps.

We’re looking forward to getting past the fuss because all we want to do is watch the games!
