With all respect for each individual Russian...
BUT Why do we all bother to ask the Russians if they know something, have done something, have seen and/or heard anything... cause we always get a general and invasive answer: "We aren't involved". .

Yes, at the latest winter olympics in South Korea they were banned.
Although some individual athletes were allowed to compete under a neutral flag. Much due to the prior olympics in Sotji. Lucky for me my interest in most kinds of sports is next to zero. |

I don't care for the Olympics. Never watch it. I only know when it's on, there is nothing new on the other channels. That was before when everything can be found on the net and we are no longer at the mercy of the TV programmers.

Not tough enough.
Russia had exactly the same action taken against them before, but they carried on. I understand WADA or the athletics federation may fear that banning Russian athletes full stop might lay themselves open to human rights or restriction of trade court cases against them, but unfortunately the Russians and history could still claim victories by Russians as Russian without the flag and the national anthem being played, which helps Russian spin machine institutional "Us against them" paranoia. A journalist was once asked by Russian journalists what he thought about the west trying to suppress the Russian birthrate by criticising its stance on homosexuality. Pravda pushes conspiracy-theory paranoia and you can bet they're not reporting the current situation objectively either. I would recommend Russian athletes for the time being should be banned under any flag for a couple of years. Not so long that they lose an entire generation of athletes, but that they have a complete time-out sin bin for long enough to disrupt their training... which was state-sponsored doping in so many cases. Be a good period to get that doped training out of their system rather than let them carry on benefiting from it. |

There should be a "Steroid Olympics" where anything goes. I would love to see someone high jump 40 feet high, run the 100 in 5 seconds, swimming a length as fast as a speedboat watch some guy rip his arms out of the sockets while attempting 1000 pounds...
Russia is still scheduled to compete in the World Junior Hockey Championships starting Dec 26th. Canafa opens the tournament against the USA. |

Steroids are genuinely useful for building up people and preventing atrophy in those who can't exercise, for example. If we're going to go to Mars, we'll need steroids to keep us strong. They do this by shifting the anabolic:catabolic balance in our tissues, so that we don't just waste away due to the lack of resistance. Without steroids they could exercise 4 hours a day and still lose mass. If they take enough of the right steroid, they might not waste away even without exercise. Experiments have already been conducted on other animals. |
