Due to security reasons the IOC now won't allow Jossimar Calvo to leave during the ceremony so it's been decided that Yuri Alvear (Judo 70k) will be the flagbearer tomorrow
 
EDIT: We now reach a streak of 5 female flagbearers in a row (6 if we include the winter games) and no male flagbearers this century/millenium.

You're right, LA would welcome it.  Thanks for your input.  

So instead clean athletes from every other country now suffer.  Even clean athletes from Russia will not be taken seriously in Rio.  No one will trust their accomplishments, and worse they will be blamed for taking medals away from more deserving competitors.  Maybe that is unfair to clean Russians, but they have no one else to blame but their own national Olympic committee.  
 
The irony is that Russians believe they are being treated unfairly due to politics, when in reality if this was a small or less powerful nation, like India or New Zealand, they would have been banned months ago when the whispers first started.  The only reason Russia is getting away with this is because it is Russia, and if they want to stop being accused of cheating then they should stop cheating.  The victim card is getting old.  
 

That is insane. It should have been put to vote. It was too big a decision.

Pantano who just won a stage in the current tour. I don't know who'd take his place in the time trial during day 5.
 
It still depends on some medical test he'll take after the tour is over.

´i agree totally with you 

It's about paying for your crimes. Sochi might be done and over but being banned as a nation because as a nation you cheated your way to 13 gold medals would be a fit punishment. It'd send a message that this kind of shit is unacceptable. Going with "what's done is done" is irresponsible sick enabling and a mockery of the effort and sacrifices clean athletes go through during every 4 years cycle.

Yep. The IAAF decision stands

Cowards. They've failed olympism and clean athletes. This is your legacy, Mr Bach. 

Dank je wel

Ok. That's clearer. Preciado is called "second flagbearer" (or junior, if you must) and Chocho is still "first"/senior. He received it because of Chocho's ausence but Chocho should still be flagbearer at the parade of nations.
 
EDIT: Way slower, lol

The Colombian fed is gonna complain about the referee but I don't see the point, tbh. Chile won, and won well (the shitty conditions played against both sides), but I don't blame Giraldo for giving up the pretense this wasn't a farce. Anyway, good luck in the playoffs.

Alonso Edward (Athletics)

I spent 6 months in Nice in my early 20s (mostly parties and french classes) and this is sickening. Enough with the terror. Everywhere: Baghdad, Istambul, Nice, Orlando, Dhaka. Stuff like this should not happen.

We have the Colombian theared! Good luck!  

Because their slave masters took their papers away. It's slavery. And those other issues you mention are troublesome, yes, but not flagrant mockeries of basic human rights. And don't even get me started with the homophobia bullshit (Russia too)
 
Btw, FARC signed the peace last week and has been kept out of cities for years anyway.
