Ie these sobs on the weather and the judging and doping klntrolya - just a shame. Instead of nagging budget for sports, athletes must deal with selection and infrastructure. And then, let us accurately assess our capabilities and capacity of the two economies in the world, the U.S. and China. And then it all looks like:
Ucero, but not submit !!!

Olympics in Vancouver

We fully support the people who believe that many millions of dollars a show called "Olympic" or any relationship to sport and have needed only for washing dirty money.
None of what a fair competitive process and can be no question where everything is measured in money.
Professional sport is a priori not be as Olympic it is based not demonstrate perfection of the human body and generosity of spirit and conscious extraction of material resources.

And what a tantrum?
Everything is understood.

Where we do not

Long before the Games in Vancouver, Russia lost the right to claim medals in nine disciplines of the existing 86. Namely, snowboarding: halfpipe - 2 sets (men and women), Bordeaux-cross - 1 (female); Nordic Combined: Relay - 1; Curling: Men's team - 1; freestyle: ski-cross - 1 (male), acrobatics - 2 (women), short track: Relay - 2 (men and women). Why did this happen, we asked at the main Olympic officials and representatives of the relevant sports federations.

ROC President Leonid Tyagachev:

- We do not qualify in these sports. You can, of course, to judge, discuss, criticize. Time will tell ... Sports Minister Vitaly Mutko, for example, stated that they are not our traditional disciplines, and they do not even need to take into account, and, perhaps, did not develop, but the emphasis is on our "family" type: figure skating ice hockey, biathlon, skiing. But I think in the future we will still fight for the medals and you mentioned disciplines.

Press Attache Federation skiing and snowboarding Russia Peter Parhitko:

- Yes, unfortunately, we are not represented in snowboarding - halfpipe for men, as well as the halfpipe and board-cross females. Our athletes do not receive admission to the Games in Vancouver in these disciplines. The team approved: Catherine Tudegesheva, Catherine Ilyukhina, Alain Zavarzin, Svetlana Boldykova, Andrew Boldykov and Stanislav baby. But athletes are not gods, so they can make mistakes. I hope that at the next Olympics, we all will be presented in full.

And they need money for these winter sports great.
This is good summer run. Ababa Ethiopian Bekila barefoot all the gold in the marathon, won in Rome in 1960 year.

The paradox is that at the Winter Olympics, our chances in the last time is always worse than the summer. The coldest and most snow country is far from being a leader in winter sports. Because winter sports, in general, coarsening, where technologically summer. To descend from the mountains, need modern route. To succeed in a sleigh and bobsleigh, too, want the route, as well as themselves sleigh and beans. And this is not the sled on which you ride on weekends with children. Decent bean stands as a very decent foreign car. Looking for trampolines for "Flying Skier", we need covered rollers for skaters. Canadians three years inventing a special alloy for the blades to their Olympic skates glided better than competitors. If German biathletes only rifle costs 15 thousand dollars - Do you think is cheap it is all her training? Money for sport in Russia spend no longer small. Ambitions prohibitive. But technology is not. Specialists little. Foreign coaches in our winter sports more frequently than in summer. And thank God, because their coaches to take yet nowhere.

Eugene, these "fans" in the network can gain a lot:
Among the Russian fans in Vancouver will be Moscow officials. For these purposes from the budget allocated 8.5 million rubles. To require them to travel guides, duty machines and the most expensive tickets for hockey, figure skating and the closing ceremony, wrote GZT.RU. Thus, sending one official at the Olympics cost the budget more than 25 thousand dollars.

Feb. 20 in Vancouver to fly 11 people. 10 of them will fly economy class, and one person (head of delegation) - business class. This zammera Sergey Baydakov. He has already flown to the opening of the XXI Olympic Winter Games, but immediately after the ceremony returned to work.

From the airport to the hotel in Vancouver, the delegation going to take two cars and one economy class business class car. Living members of the government of Moscow will be in four-star hotel, each delegate will allocate a separate room. One man was placed in a room suites, and ten people - in rooms such as "standard".

During his stay in Vancouver, officials in Moscow will move on two vans, two cars and one economy class business class car. Manage each machine must be Russian-speaking driver. The delegation plans to visit the sports facilities, the Russian house and take part in official meetings with representatives of the organizing committee of the Olympiad.
