And again, English speaking countries get away with just warnings... IAAF and WADA are turning a blind eye... if it were a Russian, every single sportsperson would be automatically banned and put under surveillance for the whole Olympic cycle.

 

Well, I think the organisations have been doing that step by step. Russia, Kenya, soon will be joined by Jamaica, USA, China

Unfortunately development of some chemicals that improve your body skills is a way faster than development of the technology uncovering it. 

 

:JAM has anyways come in the shade a bit, especially regarding male athletes. ... :USA needs to be investigated thoughout all sport spheres including college sports. 

 

We will see what WADA and other sports organisations can do within next few years. Maybe we will witness the situation when Olympic or world champions in 100m run or 10.000m will be white people cause others, no matter individiuals or national federations, might get ban easily. Just like Russia.

Coming back to Rafaela Silva.
In Brazil, fenoterol has been detected and must give away the medal of the Pan American Games. The translation is a hit: I don't have asthma, but my friend's child has it. I usually give her my nose to suck. Yes, this substance had to get in.

one of the most controversial athletes (first) and coaches (then) in T&F history...

still, until they don't get any of his athletes (even after the end of their career, if it's the case...any referral to Mo Farah and Galen Rupp is purely intentional :whistle:), I'm not sure this changes anything...

Well, I feel US wants to play "active" and "fair" country so they needed to blame someone. Not saying that Salazar is clean. But what is more convinient than put the blame on someone who works in US with local athletes but is foreign citizen :cool:

well, you know...

 

when an avalanche starts running, nobody never knows where it's going to end up...

 

now, we can only wait and see...maybe a miracle can happen and a good bunch of cheaters can be caught, even if some of them with many years' delay...

Hassan reacted by saying she is 'very shocked' :rofl: 

 

"I'm clean because I'm often tested" etc etc, Kloserhalfen (who's management answered instead of herself) seems to have the same cliche reaction.

Well, Salazar's group is basically another case of state doping - Nike has more money than some Third World countries. If anyone will save Farah & Rapp's legacy it's Nike and their lawyers. This shit ain't over tbh!

    • Lots of injuries, including often just pure bad-luck stuff like a fall from a set of stairs, illness, and of course the Sochi tragedy in 2014: one of her biathlon friends, young Julia Pieper, killed herself with a biathlon rifle early during the Olympics (she wasn't on the team, but was a training partner of both Preuss and Dahlmeier). Obviously a hard hit, which led to terrible Olympics for Preuss, with a DNF, awful results in her other individual races and a relay where she was the first runner for Germany, but fell early on, got snow in her rifle and broke a pole and ended up losing almost 3 minutes, which in turn resulted in Germany being off the podium for the first time ever.   After that came all the injuries and illness and everything. So glad to finally see her have her big individual global gold, that is so well deserved.
