Thank you IOC. Could decide in November. Now any decision will be wrong

Plus athletes like Shipulin or Yuskov won't even get the chance to appeal at CAS because of this insane short time frame

Yep, that's a good one as well. I'm very interested to see how this is gonna work out...in most cases I guess the best option would be to allow these 28 Russians to be registered (apart from retired athletes or, in ice hockey's case, NHL players, if there are any), without having any impact on already qualified athletes. At least I hope that's how it's gonna work in skeleton, then the epic Iron Man vs Superman vs Russian Rocket battle may be back on  

 

When was that ever "on"?

Before Tretiakov got thrown out

Oh, god. This is huge. All the more reason to get behind Russia now. 

I bought a flag. 1.5x1m. I can wear it!  

I wonder if they'll be allowed to compete?!

And those athletes that got in instead of Russians will remain in, just like in Rio... Only now there will be like 22 athletes in women's skeleton and so on (though sadly that means the Nigerian athlete will likely no longer be able to compete in all four runs...).

 

It's a joke, as at the end they hardly get punished at all (like really, 50km podium remains?!). IPC on the other hand made blanket ban without any fuss, guess why? Because there's no Russian politics involved as much. Olympics obviously have to be different when politics with all that victim of the big bad west charade takes place, making people ignore the real situation.

Do you think this could have an effect on the likes of Ahn and Shipulin?

there is one difference between the IOC and the IPC. Russia did not take away the medals of the Paralympic Games of 2014. That is, all do not care about the Paralympic Games.

Wow, unbelievable decision. Russia is again on the top of Sochi medal table.

I dont think so ... IOC will continue to do everything to humiliate Russia
