I’m not being smug, I’m being pragmatic.
But if you want to believe that Canada’s one massive doping debacle = Russia’s (Putin’s) systemic doping culture, cheating and ultimate failure to cover it all up, you just go on believing that, little one.
I never said they equalled each other. Just that a Canadian athlete has brought disgrace to the entire Olympic movement in the past and things like this are nothing to take delight in.
But I guess you didn’t like that being brought up. Hence the name calling.
Who were the other athletes?
I thought Ben Johnson trained in the USA. Or maybe that was Donovan Bailey.
Anyway, I’m not taking glee but OTOH I have no sympathy for the Russians, (outside of Bukin because he really does seem blindsided by it). You reap what you sow.
This shows your ignorance of historic doping in Canadian sport. I suggest you do a bit of reading about the Dubin Inquiry. Stating that “Ben Johnson trained in the USA” really says a lot though.
Systemic doping culture is a problem in all countries. It’s just that the systems are different. To deny that is pretty naive.
Also interesting that you feel sorry for Bukin, but not Stolbova. Goodness knows that she has a terrible attitude problem, but it doesn’t make it right that an athlete who has never tested positive is treated like this.
