Sochi 2014

American snowboarder Shaun White recently declined to participate in some of Sochi's snowboarding events for exactly the reason you see above. Numerous injuries on the slope course and complaints about the safety of the event have evidently fallen on deaf ears.

Diligent Youtube commenters (and yours truly) have the hunch that this is actually a Husky and not a wild wolf, judging by its demeanor and size. That all said, chalk another one up on the "This Olympics is Totally Nuts" column.

WARNING: This one's kind of hard to watch. Also, can we get this reporter off the air already?

Russian player Drozdov ate the ice during their 7-6 win over the Swiss team today. Though Russia is 1-4 in Curling games so far, maybe this is the kind of rude awakening they need to continue on.

Also, if anybody knows what it actually means to win or score points in curling, let us know in the comments.

American hopeful Shaun White bites off more than he can chew in this stunt, prematurely ending what would have been a fantastic run and a good chance at the gold medal in Sochi. A moment of silence for our favorite snowboarding bro.
