No Stepanova, great way from IOC to show a completely wrong signal :( Goodbye to anyone else having the courage to be a whistleblower

 

No Efimova, best news of 2016 :d 

 

It's almost like they don't want to have any more whistle blowers. ;)

So, if Russia will not have full ban for what was this circus?

 

Well the "good" guys tried, but missed. The whole situation of this state doping was for Sochi and it presumably ended after Sochi. So why didn't they demand all russian Sochi athletes to be DQed after those rat holes and whatnot? What has that situation have to do with Rio. Well Summer Games are way bigger than Winter. And they are now, which is huge. They would have made a mockery of Russia in front of the whole world, for something they did in the past. And it failed. I'm sure the higher powers are not happy. Erasing Sochi results won't have the same impact as this full ban would have had.

What about?

Mikhail Pulyaev Judo
Denis Iartcev Judo
Natalia Kondratieva Judo
Yekaterina Valkova Judo

It was decided early that they are clean. Like most of the others with meldonium.

It's about paying for your crimes. Sochi might be done and over but being banned as a nation because as a nation you cheated your way to 13 gold medals would be a fit punishment. It'd send a message that this kind of shit is unacceptable. Going with "what's done is done" is irresponsible sick enabling and a mockery of the effort and sacrifices clean athletes go through during every 4 years cycle.
