The Ten Best Things About the Sochi Olympics #7

Russians saying funny things. Even though it\’s engaging in a terrible American-held Boris/Natasha stereotype about very intense fur-wearing moderately villainous swarthy men with a poor command of the English language, here it is.

After losing to Finland, Russia\’s hockey coach gave this interview:

Q: What future, if any, do you see for your own work and for your coaching staff? Because, you know, your predecessor was eaten alive after the Olympics—
A: Well then, eat me alive right now—
Q: No, I mean—
A: Eat me, and I won’t be here anymore.
Q: But we have the world championship coming up!
A: Well then, there will be a different coach because I won’t exist any more, since you will have eaten me.
Q: But you’re staying, aren’t you?
A: Yes, I will remain living.
