Ukraine: Do Sports!

Here's a Buzzfeed article about Ukraine by J Lester Feder.

I was intrigued by the photo above and asked the only person I know who speaks Russian - David Cavanagh - to translate what the banners say...

"Love Russia"
"Live soberly"
"Do sports"

Do sports???

PS David, if you're lying about this I'll kill you. x
