Re: OAR [Slowman]
It's a travesty of a mockery of a sham of a mockery of a travesty of two mockeries of a sham. 169 Russian Athletes have been allowed to compete in PyeongChang. That's only 8 fewer than the Russians sent to Vancouver in 2010. (They had 235 athletes at Sochi, but the host nation gets some qualification dispensations and, therefore, typically has larger contingent than they would had they not hosted). The stands at many venues are filled with Russian citizens in Russian colors waving Russian flags cheering for their comrades. What really gets me is that they're still allowing team sports & relays. You ban Russia, but then let their entire hockey team compete under the "OAR" banner? WTF.


What appeared, at first, to be a bold action has turned into something considerably less; little more than a slap on the wrist, in fact.
