    Oh... They were too close to the victory. In Russia any German victory over Russians is considered as an absolute shame. American victory, Canadian one... That would be awful. But if would Germany defeated Russians... I can't imagine an consequence.

    Russia has not won a gold since 92 I believe so I don't understand why this is so important. :) Unless the poster is German.

    For Russians it's a religion. Do you know that when a German ask a Russian "Why?" the answer is always alone "Because you were defeated in the war". And Germans always silence. Because they know that will happen if they'll start to protest :)

    Germans killed about 20 million Russians in the Great Patriotic War so I can understand that. If they had killed 20 million Americans we would have nuked the whole country to it was dust.

    Impossible by definition, because nobody cares for Ice Hockey in Germany. And even if it was real sports it does not belong into the latest world news.

    Lol, wow, a gold medal in men's hockey for the moskals, and beating the Germans yet, who aren't exactly a powerhouse,LOL. They can take some comfort at least, since playing against the Canadians or American usually ends up getting the crap beat outta them!LOL.

    It wasn't 20+ million "Russians" that were killed, it was Baltics, ukranians, Stan's, etc, there's weren't Russians as the Muscovites try to claim, or were soviet unions inmates at the time:)).

    Nobody dopes in curling, because it's not needed. Someone slipped it to him, and I hope those who accused them are brought to court and sued for all their worth.

    I see the end of the Olympics. The viewership was down about 60% from the last Olympics. Bravo idiots, you did it again. You ruined Eurovision, now the Olympics..

    Makes you glad, doesn't it?

    So you finally admit, that the Soviet Union and Russia is not one and the same?

    Actually though the majority of people killed were Russian civilians not soldiers. Germany needed land for its large population, and so they eyed the rich black earth in Eastern Ukraine and Western Russia and began the genocide of the Russians living there.

    I apologize but your statement isn't true. The drug the curler used Meladonium or a diritive has very beneficial effects for any athlete. That drug has for decades been in the Russian Olympic training supplemental program. I don't blame him. I blame the stupid Russian Sports physicians who failed to remove this drug from their off season training regimen. It has a very unpredictable and strange half life.

    What further destroys any credibility now of the Russian position is their spokesperson coming forward and admitting fault?? Why did he do that? See below.

    However, Stanislav Pozdnyakov, head of the Russian delegation in Pyeongchang, said the positive test was a result of negligence by Sergeeva, who had “let the team down”.

    There is no external pressure or lever on the planet that could force that man to state that unless he was 100% sure she was at fault. She also admits it but doesn't know how?

    It is very strange. All of their on the record comments are bizarre and conflicting.

    I feel horrible for the Russian athletes that all they want to do is compete and represent their country which they do very well. But due to utter incompetence of their Olympic trainers, dieticians, and physicians.. All of them for not doing their job and completely removing any and all banned substances that they could easily replace with others!

    Supplementation is a vital part of elite level sports recovery regimens but Russia has known they were under a microscope. Refused to adapt from old drugs and embaressed themselves.

    All of them should be fired. Not the Athletes.

    The womens figure skating Olympic gold medal winner from Russia was MAGNIFICENT. It wasn't even close.


    To bad her countries Olympic program is run by idiots

    A German dignitary warned that Carthage fought Rome twice and was defeated, and the third time it ceased to exist.

    Never invade Russia is on the first page of Gen. Montgomery's war manual.


    Russia's main strength is the unity of its people, and that's because the attacks are unjust. I came across a Russian priest in a video on Youtube, and he said that the attacks are nothing new. If you go back to the 19th century, you will see cartoons of peaceful loving Europe, ready to be devoured by the big bad bear. And yet Russia saved Europe from Napoleon and from Hitler.

    And it will be saving them from their latest stupidities as well..

    From what I read, Melodonium is required only for sports that require a great deal of physical strength. Also it must be taken for six months to be effective, and he was tested before and they found no drugs. Obviously it was slipped to him, and is now being used for propaganda purposes.

    As for the propaganda about all Russian athletes using the drug, it comes from a man who was kicked out of his job in Russia, and then he left so he wouldn't be arrested. Even his mental health was under question at the time. He might have been compromised by some enemy of Russia, and was being black mailed. This definitely would have affected his mental health during the time.

    The Russian Olympic trainer was used by a lawyer in Canada, (which happens to have a large Western Ukrainian population), in order to humiliate and hurt Russia.



    As for Sergeeva, according to Reuters,
    CAS said in a statement that she had tested positive in an out-of-competition test for the banned heart condition product trimetazidine two days before her race.

    Russian bobsleigh official Sergei Zhurkin told reporters at the Olympic sliding center: ”At this moment she can’t say where she made a mistake.

    ”In my opinion, maybe since the dose is very small that even means that she didn’t drink the pill. As the doctors said, she could have got sprayed or smelled something or licked something. This is how minimal the dose is.

    ”Possibly she kept the pills that are allowed in the same container that was, somewhere, at some point, tainted.

    Yeah, by sending in Lenin. Really smart move.

    And you better stop calling nations **** holes, because if I recall that's how you ended up the last time. Had it not been for the Marshall Plan, you would still be there.

    Doping in curling? Are you joking? It was intentionally added to food given tp Krushelniсkiy. As the results have shown it was used only once- no gain for achieving better results, only trouble. What about americans? They suck in hockey! :mrgreen: Lost to Russian team 4:0. Ha ha ha.
