I like how those who want to believe this is true completely ignores the question as to why a Russian official would out a scheme in which they're a part of, and if it were true, could get them in trouble as well, or the fact that this person also said they will support other countries as well, when there's only three medals available, yet support is apparently being given to five different countries.
I guess this is what some need to believe to make themselves feel better. Some ubers have said this for years, so I guess yay for you that you have it in print. Although it doesn't make any sense as to why the "whistle blower" would be part of the scheme, and why this person would want to tell the press that they're cheating to get a team gold, but whatever, no need for explanation, it's all fixed. :sarcasm:
Whistle blowers by their very nature were once part of the scheme and then decide to blow the whistle.
There could be any number of reasons why they could out the situation. Because they were rejected or shunned like a woman scorned for a position. Because they felt things were going too far in the fix maybe at the highest levels as in watergate ....I could speculate on and on.
The fact is the fix has been blown into the open and I hope this is brought into the open and exposed just as Armstrong's deplorable situation was.
Support could be into the next quad for example and not immediate...
Even the athletes themselves would want this out in the open. Cannot believe that DW would want to win under these circumstances.
I have a question of those who know. What was Blumberg 's involvement ? Maybe the next expose would address this.
