IAAF and WADA are turning a blind eye... if it were a Russian, every single sportsperson would be automatically banned and put under surveillance for the whole Olympic cycle. Well, I think the organisations have been doing that step by step. Russia, Kenya, soon will be joined by Jamaica, USA, China Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olympian1010 7,516 Posted September 27, 2019 #462 Share Posted September 27, 2019 I definitely see a problem with WADA now. getting a way some blatant doping. “Sport has the power to change the world.

Unfortunately development of some chemicals that improve your body skills is a way faster than development of the technology uncovering it. has anyways come in the shade a bit, especially regarding male athletes. ... needs to be investigated thoughout all sport spheres including college sports. We will see what WADA and other sports organisations can do within next few years. Maybe we will witness the situation when Olympic or world champions in 100m run or 10.000m will be white people cause others, no matter individiuals or national federations, might get ban easily. Just like Russia. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomJa 64 Posted September 27, 2019 #464 Share Posted September 27, 2019 Coming back to Rafaela Silva. In Brazil, fenoterol has been detected and must give away the medal of the Pan American Games. The translation is a hit: I don't have asthma, but my friend's child has it. I usually give her my nose to suck. Yes, this substance had to get in. mrv86 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, I feel US wants to play "active" and "fair" country so they needed to blame someone. Not saying that Salazar is clean. But what is more convinient than put the blame on someone who works in US with local athletes but is foreign citizen Edited October 1, 2019 by Jan Linha mrv86 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

heywoodu 13,570 Posted October 1, 2019 #469 Share Posted October 1, 2019 Hassan reacted by saying she is 'very shocked' "I'm clean because I'm often tested" etc etc, Kloserhalfen (who's management answered instead of herself) seems to have the same cliche reaction. 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!

Monzanator 3,604 Posted October 1, 2019 #470 Share Posted October 1, 2019 Well, Salazar's group is basically another case of state doping - Nike has more money than some Third World countries. If anyone will save Farah & Rapp's legacy it's Nike and their lawyers. This shit ain't over tbh! mrv86 and opruh 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
