Vektor 3,196 Posted July 30, 2021 #501 Share Posted July 30, 2021 Anyway, there's a thread for doping, go with these (currently baseless) accusations there if you want to talk about it. And the athletes should shut the fuck up about this until there's proof. heywoodu 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orangehair43 177 Posted July 30, 2021 #502 Share Posted July 30, 2021 The final swimming relays will be explosive now. Russia v USA might see podium protests and more and more accusations of Russian doping. Here in the UK the British media are already counting any medal denied by Russians as an honorary medal.

But there is proof Russia should have been banned from these games and none of their athletes should be there even if Rylov himself has never been directly accused nor has had a notably suspicious career.

There's no proof against any of the Russian athletes who are currently competing in Tokyo, otherwise they wouldn't be there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, but we know how serious to take BBC when it comes to sports: not at all. They are more patriotic than even the Americans or North Koreans, if that's possible If you'd like to help our fellow Totallympics member Bruna Moura get to the 2026 Winter Olympics, after her car crash on the way to the 2022 Olympics, every tiny bit of help would be greatly appreciated!

A situation around which especially Lilly King has shown herself from her absolute worst side, I can't think of a less likeable swimmer in the whole event, including Efimova..

She is not banned under the same rules that apply to every athlete at these Games. She has served her ban and there isn't any proof that she's currently doping.
