Not a good week for the Land of Cows.

 

Alex Wilson also gets a ban, despite a masterful deployment of the Contaminated Beef manouevre.

I wonder what the British press says after December 2022 when officially returns to competition?

 

The eternal ban on Russia in sports will never happen no matter what Daily Mail or Greenbank think about it

And it’s only because the IOC is corrupt - Russia have been found guilty of state sponsored doping and they haven’t missed a single games run by the IOC despite WADA and most athletes from outside of Russia being in favour of it.

It's too late to cry over spilled milk now. IOC made their decision and Daily Mail won't change it. WA is run by a chief no less and even Coe didn't have Russia thrown out of the athletics part either which is kinda hilarious given how British press wants them out. Dare I say Coe is more powerful than UK media too?

There are only 10 Russian Athletes. He hasn’t let in the relay teams and everyone else. And he clearly does hate Russia rather than many sports governing bodies who still love them.

A good defence of Murphy and his actions.

When Americans don't win gold medals they always have to blame outside influence, not themselves.

 

Sun Yang isn't here yet they don't blame Dean & Scott for taking away their medals at this distance?

 

Efimova isn't taking away medals so now it's Rylov who has to be on doping, right? How convenient

 

Or maybe they should blame Hafnaoui who also had the nerve to take away one of the US gold medals in 400 free. He must be on doping, right?

 

America only loses when someone else is cheating. Ho-hum! Someone needs to tell Ryan Murphy he's not Ryan Lochte
