strong rumours about a mega scandal in Russian ice hockey!!! apparently Russia will not send their team to the upcomming Under 18 world championships because many players from the team were caught on meldonium. The Russian federation cancelled the tomorrows planned departure to USA for the World Champs which will start 14th april. the coach Vitaly Prokhorov has been immediately fired, the rumours said that the entire team will be replaced with the U17s!!! 

 

no, team is supposed to depart on 8th April. tomorrow open training is cancelled. but tomorrow final roster will be announced

 

yes, there are rumors about meldonium, but they started from yellow media. but i won't surprise if they are true...

Bring back the 1991 borders

Norwegian weightlifter Ruth Kasirye failed her doping test. Yep. Meldonium again:

http://www.vg.no/sport/doping/norsk-ol-flaggbaerer-testet-positivt-paa-meldonium-mitt-ansvar/a/23653671/

She had tested positive after being treated with meldonium while receiving medical treatment in Uganda.

4 days before European Weightlifting Championships in Norway.

Meanwhile IBU delayed rulings on meldonium cases of Abramova & Tyshchenko "as the results of a pilot study conducted by the expert called by the Panel contradicted the present state of literature on Meldonium".

The results of the WADA-study are expected for no later than September.

Imo, they will be given 1 year ban.

My point about this is that it's a) easier to believe and b) more logical that countries where "glory to the Motherland" (or some communist stuff) through sports is so incredibly important, are doping with state help.

 

For example here in the Netherlands we don't have this extreme "glory to the Motherland" feeling and I don't think there is state-run doping here. Obviously I think there is doping here, but I think it's more private or arranged by the teams itself instead of coming from the sports federations and authorities.

 

But my main point stays the same: it is a sign of huge weakness when people are saying "Stop it, it's a conspiracy from the big bad wolf against us!" instead of "We're gonna do all we can to clean up this shit". 

 

1. XX athletes from country X get caught

2. People in country X respond by saying "omg, conspiracy against us, we're the victims!!"

 

That doesn't make it any more believable. 

 

 

oh western europeans who live with 80s propaganda about former communist countries...:d

 

our or Ukrainian athletes have the same motivation as Dutch, i assure you, plz don`t go back to middle ages :p, and yes, i`m sure there is a doping in each country, Netherlands too. In Russia they have so much of it not to "die for mothercountry" :lol: but to......qualify to national team (they have so many good athletes that they cheat, but in private interest not some former national pride, c`mon, come back to earth :) )

Sportsmen who can be proclaimed innocent by WADA:

 

Andrey Rybakov (BLR)

Yulia Yefimova (RUS)

Pavel Kulizhnikov (RUS)

Semen Elistratov (RUS)

Andrey Minzhulin (RUS)

Nadezhda Kotlyarova (RUS)

Gulshat Fazlitdinova (RUS)

Olga Vovk (RUS)

Alexander Markin (RUS)

Artyom Tyshchenko (UKR)

etc.

 

However they still have to prove that they consumed it before January 1.

The 1st hearings coming in a 2 weeks.

 

 

ps. According to the 1st results of the WADA study, meldonium eliminates from the body in 1 month & longer.

1 µg - 100ng ---> 3 weeks and more

100ng - less ---> few months

well,I think this is good news. Maybe some athlete is tested for example in 7.1. and he used this before 20.12. so I think it is not his fault.

    • 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).
