I feel so bad for Jessica. Unlike Kamila, the benefit of the doubt wasn't given to her, and her shot at Worlds was taken.

This also makes me think about Shacarri Richardson. For being banned not only from competing at the Olympics but for ONE YEAR for taking a non performance enhancing drug. But people who support this decision dont care about the hypocrisy, so long as their fav is skating. Absolutely horrible.

And I also wish those who are full of bile now to cool down. It's bad for your health.

taking a bath in lukewarm, not cold water coz it can cause some stroke for older people. lots of fumes here right now. geeez

I'm not spiritual whatsoever but to whatever higher powers there are, give this girl strength.
To all the vultures on here, can you even IMAGINE with what kind of a mental state Kamila is going into this event?
She has no freaking advantage anymore, even if she was given some substance to let her train 1h longer before December, this whole spectacle has put her at an enormous mental and I'm willing to bet successive physical disadvantage. While her competitors were preparing, she had to deal with this, up to the point of having to attend a court hearing during the night before her skate?! Lipnitskaya at 15yo broke under intense positive media attention back in Sochi. Kamila has had double that attention but the negative, verbal harassment, hatred from all over the world, kind.

If for some reason she manages to perform well and not crumble mentally, give her the damn Gold Medal just for that.

You should be more concerned about the health of the abused girls at Sambo-70.

That doesn't matter to them. Gold and ROC nationalism is what matters.

As I read there will be an investigation and they will ask the girls, you'll be surprised by their answers. Russian culture is different from us on how you term abuse.

I remain confused. I thought it was confirmed that she tested positive in December. If those results had been processed promptly, she wouldn't have been eligible to compete in the Olympics. Right? Or would this protected person rule, or some other loophole, spared her, anyway?

Sure I will, after those girls show to those who you root for how the champions skate.

Win this baby girl. It's a big mess so you rise out of the ashes and win this.

It is not about winning or not winning.

This is ROC though.

Laws relating to doping and child abuse do not apply to them. Hiding behind someone's age to dope to their heart's content.

 

[SNAKSuyun]

Disappointed with this decision, and also disappointed with anyone who have been arguing for this decision because "I have to defend one of my own / my country is being picked on" or "everyone else dopes too, they just haven't been caught / have learned to play the system." Not gonna put Sun Yang or any other athlete above the integrity of the sport.

Of course they are champions; they are superhuman!

Tell that to the six consecutive downgraded quad flips Anna tried yesterday.

Tell this to the US fans of Ms. Biles who could not perform without strong drugs. Or fans of Norwegian "asthmatics"

there is no evidence Kamila is being doped.

Anna might had a bad day or injured again, she was injured at rus nats and was just recovering in euros.

I don't have details of Jessica's case but it seems that she hasn't understood the matter either. They did not resolve in a week that Kamila is innocent, they decided that under the WADA laws there were not enough reasons to eliminate her from the Olympic Games. The cases are not even compared.

 

[Wafflecakes]

This ruling did not throw out the drug test.

She tested positive. That IS evidence.

You may have evidence that she isn't on any drugs THIS EXACT SECOND, but that is irrelevant to the question. The rules are not "you can dope.... just not during competitions.".

Did Biles really not take the ADHD drug ? I read in Russian forums it was the reason she had a break and decided to withdraw.

that's as false as it gets
