FuAARKK. That is an above-ground nuclear test!
-
Time to restart the Goodwill games.

The IOC has not yet officially made any decision.

The Daily Mail is going out on a limb...? Usually these leaks end up being legit.

I predict a soft ban. Most athletes will attend. Probably some crazy 'these athletes are real clean because we said so..' no mention or visual cue they are Russian on the broadcast... -
Issi is going to be pissy

Zyzz brah!

From a basic "human rights" point of view, this is very bad. This is "Guilt by Association," and I am totally against it.
Every single athlete, me, you and everyone else, in every country around the world, has a unique story to tell, and each of the Russians do as well.
Test the bejesus out of them, making them pee in a bottle every single day, take 1cc of blood every single day, search their belongings every single day, make them subject to the strictest anti-doping, searching and surveillance procedures that have every been imagined for a sporting competition, but LET THE CLEAN ONES COMPETE!!! -
They should ban the entire Kenyan and Jamaican teams as well...

There will also be no need to do a chromosome test to determine if she is female. That will save money on testing.
Win. Win. -

Well, apparently the Daily Mail was wrong, for once. -
Never underestimate the level of corruption inside the IOC.
