Barred from Olympic competition thanks to the doping in Sochi & elsewhere. They won't be missed.

That's ok. They can start up the all drug Olympics they've always wanted in the first place.

Anyone watch "Icarus" on Netflix? Pretty informative about doping by Russia and the world, in general.

No one is clean.

WITCH HUNT! How much have they spent on this investigation! What about MARION JONES? Why wasn't the USA banned?

Still, the athletes can all compete. They aren't even banning the athletes representing Russia. Just can't wear the normal Russian flag on uniforms or hear the Russian anthem. Sorta silly.

But then again, so are the Olympics in general.

Agreed. But it's funny to watch Putin & his oligarchs scream bloody murder.

I'm curious to see how quickly they'll be dropping their bids for future games, especially as they've been great ways to funnel public money into the preferred Kremlin friends' pockets

The only thing I remember from Sochi was Putin having all the stray dogs around the stadium shot.

And the fact that Sochi is basically a summer resort area that needed a lot of artificial snow because of the warmer temperatures there. A lot of the skiers and snowboarders were pissed at the conditions.
