Not to start this argument again (and I very much want to see the Russian skaters in Beijing), but it's not because some athletes doped. It's because there was a state sponsored doping program. It's never been about individual athletes.Mama Tiff, I’m praying for the best for you and your team. I still can’t wrap my brain around how an entire country can get banned from the Olympics just because some athletes doped, and it feels very political to me. WADA claims to “protect clean athletes”, but it ended up hurting dozens of clean athletes by taking their flags and banning some clean athletes from the 2018 Olympics. That is not “fair sport”.
I support the Russian figure skating team no matter what <3
