Way to get back in the Games, not…
Via Chicago Tribune:
Russia paid a stiff price for cheating its way to medals in past Olympics. With its state-sponsored doping program exposed, the country endured the humiliation of having more than 100 athletes banned from the Summer Games in Rio de Janeiro. Russia’s medal count at the London Summer Games in 2012 was almost a third larger than it was in Rio. In all likelihood in the Kremlin’s gilded halls, teeth gnashed, fists clenched.
Afterward, Russia’s choice was simple. Reform or revenge. Go straight or get even. Now we know what it chose.
Russian hackers slithered into the World Anti-Doping Agency’s databases and revealed to the world private medical information of four top American Olympians: gold medal-winning gymnast Simone Biles, tennis sister-divas Serena and Venus Williams and basketball star Elena Delle Donne. That information included medication they were taking — medication the hackers contend shows American athletes also took banned substances.
