What's more suspicious - these meds exist for 4 (!) decades but they were included to the prohibited list only now.

7 months before the Olympics :mumble: After certain lobbyist studying that it's popular among their competitors E. Europeans.

 

I don't know what's suspicious about that. It's definitely not the extremely childing Russian thing of "OMG it's a Western conspiracy to make us look bad!11!!!!", because if that was the case, Russia wouldn't have voted for the inclusion of meldonium on the WADA list. And besides, that's Russia's standard reaction. They don't like something, they make it "a Western conspiracy". Grow up Russians.

This is the standard response of a hypocrites. After WADA have stated the real attack on the russian sport, that see all over the world, in response ironic that the russian doesnt like it and it seems a conspiracy. I dont know how to call it - a conspiracy or something else, but I'm sure - will soon be held Olympics in Rio and believe, will begin a new era in the sports policy.

WADA crossed the line of what is permitted and will be responsible for everything. For that mixes sports and politics, to ban meldonium (none of the Russian did not vote for it - it's a lie!). WADA is responsible for all the machinations with the сanadian Pound, for the fact that this anglo-saxon organization closed and uncontrolled, and under the guise of the fight against doping decides the fate of people.  Everything changes after Rio.

Now you can enjoy and open the champagne because it was lucky that now Russian sports run by idiots like the Minister Mutko.  But this, too, will change soon.

Will soon get to the Dutch "clean" skaters,  to the "clean" British athlets and to norwegian asthmatics. You're clever and brazen, taking legal dope, are undercover WADA. Continues to delight each new doping case of russian, has a short time left

Trust me, there is no way I believe the Dutch skaters in general are clean :d 

 

But thinking that this whole thing about the Russian state doping is actually a Western conspiracy..nah, no way. Maybe it is easy to make people believe that countries like Russia, China and North Korea are massively doping, but I really don't think this is such a weird thought. 

 

Instead of screaming "OMG it's a conspiracy!" like a frustrated teenage child, it'd be a lot more helpful to take the blame and start cleaning up the mess for real.

looks like Nikolay Kuksenkov is also positive on meldonium

1) Source?

2) I think this is really bad news for Russia, this destroys their (already small) chance to fight for a team medal in Rio.

3) I just hope that Verniaiev, Belyavskiy and Ablyazin are clean.

I think first (?) case in water polo, Russian player Alexey Bugaychuk

1) When was he tested and for which substance?

2) Is he part of the russian roster at the world qualification tournament for Rio?

Thanks! I really dont understand it ...

Either russian athletes live on the moon OR they just dont care OR meldonium remains much longer in the body than expected. There is no other explanation why they are still caught, more than 3 months after Meldonium became illegal.

    • One of my favorite songs from the early 2000s that I listened to on a cassette on my walkman      
    • For me 20 medals will be good. And if more there are? Super. However, I prefer not to get my hopes up too much, so as not to be disappointed later.
    • If you're still taking suggestions, I tought the following:   Team Madison format.   17 teams of 2 "riders", randomly drawn. Teams can be named for famous "endurance" track cyclists. 4 intermediate "sprints", one after a voting block, in which the top 8 teams will score according to this formula: (10, 8, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2 & 1). The order in which team score for a sprint are determined by the total number of "medals" won by both members of the team during the block. Ranking will be sorted according to the number of gold medals, then silver, then bronze. If there's two or more teams with same number of points, the medals of best individual performer of each team will be considered to break the tie. If the tie remains, then team's total points during the block will be used to break it. If the team fails to receive a single medal during each block, it will be considered to "lose lap" and 20 points will be substracted from their score. If the team fails to score at least 1 point during each block, it will be an automatic DNF for the team. If both members of the team get a medal from a single jury, it will be considered to "gain lap" and 20 points will be added to their score. A team can only win an additional lap per voting block. After the 4 intermediate, a "final" sprint will be recorded, in which points will be doubled (20, 16, 12, 10, 8, 6, 4 & 2). Ranking for the final sprint will take into account the total medals won during the event.   What do you think?
    • I don't medal pick, per se... I assign probabilities/expected-values and total them up. So I don't have a gold medal estimate... but if you want one, divide those numbers by three and you'll be pretty close!   I imagine Norway, Italy and Netherlands and maybe Canada will probably skew a bit higher on golds, and US, Germany, and Sweden will skew a little lower... so maybe: Norway - 14 US - 11 Germany - 11 Italy - 11 Canada - 10 Austria - 8 Netherlands - 8 Japan - 7 Sweden - 6 France.- 6   I was surprised seeing Italy come in that high, I was figuring 22-23, but I guess they've been do well on the World Cups. 
    • If you were to predict top- 10 for the number of gold medals, what would it look like?     For me, as an Italian, any result for Italy: +20 medals would be OK (if that will include 6-7 gold medals). The trauma of Turin 2006 is too great
    • Doesn't really help that two of the strongest countries in that particular sport are banned from the team event for well known reasons.
    • Just another reason why it's super dumb that the NOC max in freestyle skiing isn't 40.
    • In rugby there's More Squidge Rugby (the main channel has proper videos).
