is the IOC being unfair to Russia

[Anonymous]

The West's witch hunt against Russia continues.

[Odinson]

We are punishing ourselves with these sanctions and other kinds of petty crap.



You know the international unions sanctioned nazi-Germany too prior to WW2..



Hitler just wiped his ass on all those sanctions.





The stupid potheads at the IOC have just managed to lower the quality in the olympics.

The difference between the Russian doping and others is that there is clear evidence that the Russian doping was State managed.



There is no such evidence for Chinese athletes.

All things related to international sport in China is state managed..



International sport is an opportunity for Chinese hyper nationalism to show off.

I think that is well known and understood...



However, it has to be PROVED, and that is difficult.



As far as Russia goes, their chief physician actually came out and admitted he was working for and on behalf of the government and its sports minister.



No such revelation or admission has been forthcoming from China.

Do you think China would admit doping?

Russia did.

A Michigan sports doctor is getting 60 years in prison for possession of child pornography charges, one of three criminal cases against a man who also admits assaulting female gymnasts.



A judge has sentenced Larry Nassar, 54, who worked at Michigan State University and USA Gymnastics, which trains Olympians, to 60 years in federal prison.



Investigators found more than 37,000 images of child porn on Nassar's electronic devices in 2016. He pleaded guilty in July to multiple child pornography charges.



"Underneath this veneer lurked a predator," Assistant U.S. Attorney Sean Lewis said.



Olympians Aly Raisman, McKayla Maroney and Gabby Douglas say they were victims when Nassar worked for USA Gymnastics and accompanied them at workouts or international events.



Nassar is a "monster" who "left scars on my psyche that may never go away," Maroney said in a letter to U.S. District Judge Janet Neff.

I'm just glad that for people to be a doctor these days they're required to go through a very serious psychology test unlike the old days.

That's true, though from what I heard doctors these days dun get to choose which medical department they get to specialize in, but the psychology examination makes the decision for them, not saying it's perfect, but still helps a lot compared to the past.

I didn't know that.

[Angry White Male]

I'm not so sure...  I think a Doctor can still choose what specialty he goes into, should he decide to become a specialist.
