That is real ROFL )))))
Russia has a "Friendship cup" in Perm these days.
They announced 4 team: 3 national teams - russia, Venezuela, Colombia and "Parma" (local basketball club).
Propaganda described it as an international tournament to show that russian sport is not totally blocked.
Kirilenko was happy to see national teeams from South America.
And...
"Parma" won the first quarter against Colombia - 41:2
Total score - 155:53.
And... Colombian basketball federation stated that they did not send national team there )))
Furthermore - they even did not receive invitation ))))
P.S. It looks like none of that players played for Colombia ever ))

I really wish world athletics took a stronger position on this aspect of Bahraini athletics, they just kind of added it on the end to appease people without really addressing the problem. When your entire athletics team is made up of naturalised athletes you must be doing something wrong. For me, the worst case has to be Salwa Eid Naser, who changed her name to compete for Bahrain from Nigeria. You can't blame the athletes because they are doing the best for their careers, but to me it send out the wrong image for the athletics community.
Any idea how to rewatch today's afternoon session? UCI just points to this thing, but that's only from yesterday and even with Google Translate it's nearly impossible to navigate this 'website'.
