Russia Banned from 2018 Olympics-World Yawns

[bill barilko]

People forget/never understood how big a deal Olympic participation used to be for Russia in the Bad Old Days of the Soviet (read commie swine) Empire.

And for all that they got rid of the commissars they couldn't give up their cheating lying ways- if you've read how hard they worked to cheat, cheat, cheat in Sochi this is no surprise.

Russia is corrupt thru and thru.

It's a good thing they finally got banned for the Korean Olympics, but they should have also banned the clean Russians as well.

I hope all G7 country leaders make a statement that they support the Ban and that a sports organization can only work if it's clean.
Countries should stick together against corruption

I'm sure Putin will play the victim card now,,,, poor ruskies, nobody likes them.

They think that it's all one, big plot against them. They are so good at hatching plots, themselves, they expect everyone else to play by the same rules.

Putin is scarred with nuclear war in SK with NK and America and never let athletics in SK.

Putin's probably going to help NK attack SK during the Olympics, now in a tantrum.
