Gold:  USA

The US Olympic Commitee contacted their swimmers to tell them to expect gold medals but it turned out they jumped the gun by a long, long way.

WADA covered it up for the Chinese.

Will they compete in Paris despite being proven for doping ?

And wasn't WADA created to protect clean athletes not protect dopers?

Like i've said previously "Excuses are already lined up for every Chinese medal won in Paris". NBC are having the cue card on speed dile.

NBC broadcast the Olympics in America. For NBC, American athletes are of course the best athletes on the planet (especially in swimming, athletics, gymnastics). Anytime some one else beats said athletes there must be some outside reason. No one could objectively be better than Americans. 

 

So in Paris, when China wins a bunch of medals in swimming, because they have a  great generation, NBC will have the graphics and it's analyst pull reports how China are "allegedly doping" and this is why they are winning.

Also has anyone read the report about World aquatics stonewalling the independent review committee on the situation? They are refusing to give the required documents of the 28 athletes to properly review the case for the past three weeks. They are stalling them from finding out the truth. How is this allowed?
