Another particularly informative read about the Sochi Olympics in particular, and Russia in general:

Absolutely epic hockey game btw USA & Russia.  USA wins it in the 8th round of the shootout.

TJ Oshie carried the US on his back there. 4 shootout goals.

Just absolutely full of drama. Huge no goal call against the Russians in the 3rd. 

This is why I love sports.

Epic is right.

I was jumping up/down and yelling so loud during that shootout that my throat still hurts.
