      OK, there´s even more doping in the SO

      BTW I´ve always (well, it´s a relative term isn´t it...) wondered where Mingapulco is located, obviously it´s somewhere warm, right?

        Here is an article
        MSNBC breaking news and the latest news for today. Get daily news from local news reporters and world news updates with live audio & video from our team.

        detailing the history of what little of the corruption in ice dancing judging that has been made public, undoubtedly only the tip of the iceberg. Including more information on the currently scandal than I have seen published elsewhere; With the French judge having put into sworn staements that she was presseured to vote trade with the russians, before she later recanted. You would think the East block judges would be more carefull of being recorded, but Ukrainians are twice caught on tape and a Russian once.

          It was the worse Olympic games I’ve ever seen. It’s a shame for USA not for us.
          I agree. We should have beat Germany in the Medal Count

                  Serb: You didn't answer rah's argument--i.e., that the Russian public just couldn't take the fact that you were having a bad games, even while cheating. Further, that instead of either resolving to cheat better in the next games, or actually investing in your athletes so that they do better (as the US did after '88), we get a stream of complaints. As though complaining will make your athletes better! What a downer!

                  Well it did work for the Canadian hockey team, but Gretzky only used that ploy once.
                  I came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter. It was the institution of the "free lunch" I had struck. You paid for a drink and got as much as you wanted to eat. For something less than a rupee a day a man can feed himself sumptuously in San Francisco, even though he be a bankrupt. Remember this if ever you are stranded in these parts. ~ Rudyard Kipling, 1891

                      They were not caught at doping upon winning their first medals. Not caught -> innocent. Just presumption of innocence.

                        May I comment on this. What you mention may be just one of the aspects that affected how Russia perceived the Olimpic Games. It would be very incorrect to reduce it all to this single aspect. The problem is that Russia received an outrageous treatment at this olympiad. The Canadian case alone, even disregarding other scandals, is more than enough to justify the above statement.

                          the "canadian case" as you call it was a clear cheat, we had a confession from the french judge, what more do you want? It wasn't the skaters fault, blame it on the judges.
