Russian athletes based outside of Russia like Klishina should be allowed to compete. Ban the rest.

 

What do we do with team sports then? we allow only players that perform outside of Russia? that is complex.

If they can form a team with them, sure. Otherwise, too bad but the priority should be protecting the athletes that's worked their ass off for 4 years from losing a deserving medal to tools of Putin's vanity.

i dont say the russian sistematic doping are lies, probably there are true but be honest: the russian case if for politic and the most cases of doping are from countrys and athletes who have olds forms of dopings, for that reason we see a very few dopings of the sports powerful countries in the world, Rusia has all or the most part of their delegation with doping and we dont see any from U.S.A and China?, come on......and i dont have any doubt that in China there are a biggest sistematic doping even than Russia, in the case of United States im not sure.......

I doubt WADA has many interests, but IOC has. However, I'm guessing it's in their interest to see Russia compete, to avoid Rio 2016 going in the books as "The Olympics without Russia". Which is why I guess Russia will be at the Olympics: banning them would be too costly so I'm guessing they'll be lucky.

 

Egen WADA says they have to be banned, I don't think the IOC have much choice...

I don't think there is state sponsored doping in the USA/Netherlands/etc. On the other hand, I think the "private doping" (athletes/groups of athletes doping themselves) is way bigger than in countries like China or Russia. But, that's just a feeling and not based on any research :d

Agree, the case of Marion Jones and the Balco Laboratory is one example of that.

It's interesting that people discuss there only the fact of possible disqualification and don't mention any real facts that were said on the conference. Have you mentioned that there were NO names of athletes? It seems that they are afraid to do this, because sportsmen can reply just after that. Rodchenkov had said some months ago that Legkov was one of the dopers - and what's next? Just days later there were all documents from Alexander that he was(and is) clean. I think it would be easy for not-dopers to proof their innocence, but WADA even doesn't name anybody - that can lead to destruction of their report.

    • It was also nice to have actual crowds again. I think the Beijing organizers did the best they could given the COVID regulations that still existed in China at the time, but it sure did dampen the atmosphere *a lot*.
    • I was in premium economy as well, the extra five inches of leg room definitively helped me stay sane.   For BA I was in business class and I just wasn't impressed at all, despite the cabin itself being really good (it was a 787-900 so their newer business class product). The service was just... not good enough for international business class - they actually made me appreciate Air Canada xD . With Condor I could forgive the service not being that good because of how little (relatively) I paid, and the seat was comfortable enough.
    • Yes. This was the best WOG since at least Sochi 2014. I only started paying attention to the Olympics after London 2012, so small sample size. But, this was the best WOG I can remember. European fans and atmosphere make everything better in my opinion.
    • There were lots of good moments , this olympics felt so special (I am talking of WOG). The last time I really enjoyed viewing WOG was in Sochi & this tops it. So many feel good moments, very well attended event with spectators filling up stands & making an atmosphere. So many top performances, but for me the  women team dominating the Biathlon event was really special. All 3 of them were just so good & gave top performance. I love it how the female commentator pronounced  Lou Jeanmonnot  & finally grazie mille  we loved it! Thanks for making me fall in love with winter sports again 
    • I'm surprised that some Hungarians here are interested in some Nazis in Kiev, instead of their country's economic decline over the last 15-20 years, falling under Romania's level of GDP, when around 2000 it was the richest country in the all former post-communist region. But I understand that this is Orban's tactic to continue ruling and stealing the country, to distract from truly important matters and focus on trivial matters. Clinton's campaign slogan in the USA many years ago: "The economy, stupid!" I think that the current opposition leader in HUN should probably do the same- just do your thing and let Orban himself with all of this Soros, Nazis, etc, only the Martians are still missing in this madness, but that may come to pass
    • I found Condor really nice. I did upgrade myself, so maybe thats why. I would fly them again  
    • So, wanted to update on this now that I’m back home in Seattle to say I had a really good time in Milan. I ended up not going to events outside of Milan (I went to short track, speed skating and hockey), and it was probably a good decision to keep things simple for my first Olympics.   Getting around in Milan was a breeze, and I feel things were pretty well organized at the venues (though the ice hockey venue definitively could have used a couple more weeks of work). I was especially pleased with the speed skating venue, given it’s a temporary track it looked really good once you were actually in your seat and things were well organized for spectators (even though it was a looooong walk to and from the train station).   So ya, happy with the experience, as a newbie to both attending the Olympics and traveling in Europe. Def made me want to attend the French Alps in 2030 (and subject them to my horrible-for-a-native French accent xD )   Thanks to  for being good hosts.   As an aside, I now understand why people dislike British Airways, and Condor was surprisingly okay, though it was definitively a "you get what you paid for" situation (flew SEA-LHR to get to Europe and FRA-SEA on the way back).   Edit: oh, and big shout-out to the volunteers who were universally lovely.
    • Hello everyone, and yes, on the road to LA28! I’m sure there will be some great discussions here.   I made a profile here four years ago and now I’ve finally become active   Better late than never.
