oh yes, I saw that on the news, apparently the russians switched to a pre-recorded rehersal when it went wrong, so the russian public saw it go well, but the rest of the world saw it live, via their own feeds.....

Yellow water = Poison the competition
Locking teams in bathrooms = Unable to attend the event
Hotel front doors that wont close = Sending in the russian mob to handle the competition the 'right way'

I agree. They do not deserve any recognition of any kind including this.

A lot of this has been whipped up by the Western media

So the water came out yellow from the tap, big deal. They had a problem with the Olympic ring, so what?, concentrate on the sport.

I don't watch the Olympic Games much, maybe there has been some other calamities I am not aware of
