Hard to host the Winter Olympics if the temperature...

[jocstrap 8]

I'll pull out a few sentences that grabbed my attention from the article.....

 

 

Some Vancouverites are now referring to them as "The Brown Games,'' given the muddy conditions at Cypress Mountain.

 

"When I got off the airplane it was like, 'What's this green grass doing here? This is the Winter Olympics,''' U.S. speedskater Trevor Marsicano said Sunday

 

Trouble is, with Opening Ceremonies only five days away, the above-freezing temperatures in Vancouver — it got above 50 on Saturday

 

In Vancouver, along the city streets and gardens, crocuses are starting to sprout and apple blossoms are starting to bud on trees, making for an unusual sight for a Winter Games host city

What is unusual is the lack of snow on the North Shore Mountains, which have experienced one of the warmest months of January on record.

Move it to DC and Baltimore and Philly and the Susquehanna Valley and northern Virginia... spread all the events around.

 

Just use I-83 around Parkton for the ski jump.

 

 

Barely any snow here... wants some plows?

We're getting nothing here. This next storm only goes as far north as Paterno's coke bottle glasses.

 

I-83 should be turned into a ski jump.
