Bandy in the Olympics? (For real this time)

BOULDER, Colorado -- Vitaly Afanasev has recently written an article for the SKA-Neftyanik Khabarovsk website, Far Eastern Bandy Forum, making the case for bandy to be included in the 2014 Winter Olympics, to be held in the Russian city of Sochi.

Many times on this site, I have mocked the idea of both bandy being in the Olympics, and the Olympics being held in Sochi. Well, the later has come true, so perhaps the former is possible as well.

I will be posting a translation of the article soon, but here's a link to the Russian text as it appeared on Bandynet.ru.
