It's no wonder he has no presence on social media and tweets like this are to be expected. Nathan was overscored in the PCS. But when you give 94 to Kagiyama, then 97 for Nathan seems fair. It's just how the system works. #banbestmen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But well they just always bringing the same narrative that judges always overscore Nathan while underscoring Yuzuru Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OlympicsFan 783 Posted February 10, 2022 #254 Share Posted February 10, 2022 I see that Russia is still doing Russia things (sadly nothing surprising). Doping children is GDR level shit. The solution to deal with their nonsense is obvious, but IOC is corrupt, so obviously nothing will happen. Crazy how desperate for recognition you have to be to go this far. I guess when your economy and science are shit you have nothing else than sport and war to feel important. Attachment is the great fabricator of illusions; reality can be obtained only by someone who is detached. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually wonder if this has already gone to CAS for them to decide. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dunadan 1,103 Posted February 10, 2022 #257 Share Posted February 10, 2022 Apparently she tested positive for trimetazidine though...that would suggest that Russians are continuing to treat their athletes for "heart problems" as usual...what is the need for 15 years old youngsters without any medical exemption to be administered these drugs and why in othr countries they do not have this many heart problems is of course a mystery.

Why is Trimetazidine not a performance enhancing substance but still banned? It’s a bit odd that something like is not classed as performing enhancing if it needs to be banned.

dcro 10,179 Posted February 10, 2022 #259 Share Posted February 10, 2022 ITG article is hilarious though. They are literally mentioning how Alec Baldwin praised Valieva's performance on Instagram Yeah, isn't he just a great judge of many things? The absolute lowest form of journalism. #banbestmen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
