T&Fwatch 6 Posted July 24, 2016 #573 Share Posted July 24, 2016 Worst decision, IOC could have made. CAS should be open 24/7. This rule will be overturned easily with respect to Osaka Rule. Also there won't be any other Whistleblower, after this kick in the face of Stepanova... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you'd like to help our fellow Totallympics member Bruna Moura get to the 2026 Winter Olympics, after her car crash on the way to the 2022 Olympics, every tiny bit of help would be greatly appreciated!

Or because they are russian they dont have the same rights as other athletes? Banning someone for something he/ she hasnt commited is hyprocracy. Anyone that tests possitive should fully take the punishment, but banning them beforehand, just fullfills other agendas than only clean sport. So instead clean athletes from every other country now suffer. Even clean athletes from Russia will not be taken seriously in Rio. No one will trust their accomplishments, and worse they will be blamed for taking medals away from more deserving competitors. Maybe that is unfair to clean Russians, but they have no one else to blame but their own national Olympic committee. The irony is that Russians believe they are being treated unfairly due to politics, when in reality if this was a small or less powerful nation, like India or New Zealand, they would have been banned months ago when the whispers first started. The only reason Russia is getting away with this is because it is Russia, and if they want to stop being accused of cheating then they should stop cheating. The victim card is getting old.
