Not sure why LR isn't on this more. CNN just reported on this one hour ago and it's developing. High percentage of those testing positive are medalists.

All of these clearly corrupt and filthy athletes and officials are all whining, but EVERYONE in russia is doping. Shut the fvck up Russia.
Why don't they release the names immediately? This garbage Happens every time before a major event. X amount of athletes tested positive from major event 4 or more years ago and you never end up hearing anything. Lame.
Maybe it's just a psych-op in the run-up to the Olympics.

Because someone "up there" in the the system wants to be paid a pile of cash.

Exactly. There is zero transparency. The moment an individual tests positive it should immediately be disclosed publicly. 23/30 are medalists. We are right to be cynical of performances and the Mo Farah's of the world cannot be doing what they're doing without serious chemical/technological assistance. But in our corrupt world, nobody cares.
