Denver should have bid for 2022 You’d think Denver would work but doesn’t.

Russia needed to be banned for at least two Olympics (Summer and Winter). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lasted a total of 16 seconds in 2 races....goodness. Now 9th in the Super-G.

Politics everywhere I'm cautiously optimistic that CAS reinstates the ban. That said, I won't be surprised if this is similar to the East German doping and athletes may not have known, especially minors. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Worked with one of the guys. All pretty ordinary dudes that happened to have curled most of their lives and are now at the top of the sport.

Not looking sharp in this Olympics but they also didn’t in South Korea until they went on a roll and won out. They still control their own destiny so hopefully they play desperate.

cberkas Posted February 16, 2022 Share Posted February 16, 2022 With the doping with the Russian figure skater, sounds like if she finishes in the top 3 no one gets a medal, and you have to be 17 to be in the Olympics. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LuvHockey Posted February 16, 2022 Share Posted February 16, 2022 I just cannot believe the tolerance for Russian doping. The ENTIRE country is banned due to doping. The (healthy young) RUSSIAN skater is found to have a banned cardiac drug- as well as 2 more non banned cardiac substances- and her grandfather just happens to be taking the banned drug (need I say ACCESS?), and instead of being banned, she gets to compete and possibly keep medals.... If she were a USA skater- next bus outta town for sure. I really have no respect for these Olympics..... 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
