The only reason they haven't caught the Chinese doping is they are smarter about it.

Yup, Chinese are smarter than Russian and American and are therefore capable of devising a good training program that doesn't rely on doping.

And restored back to how it should be. Do the names Tyson Gay and Lance Armstrong mean anything to you?

LOL... you didn't even "fix it" 100%.

"We want fairness. There is no fairness if you do not let us cheat."

This was the chant of an angry mob of more than 2,000 people that had gathered, oddly enough, to protest a strict crackdown on cheating during China's college entrance examination earlier this month in Zhongxiang, Hubei Province.

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/michael-l ... 74544.html

As evidence, the Times quotes a report concluding that "90 percent of Chinese applicants submit false recommendations, 70 percent have other people write their personal essays, 50 percent have forged high school transcripts and 10 percent list academic awards and other achievements they did not receive."

http://blogs.wsj.com/chinarealtime/2015 ... -cheating/

According to an estimate by a U.S. education company, some 8,000 Chinese students were expelled from American universities last year alone – and the main reasons were poor grades and cheating.

Over 2,000 Chinese students have been caught cheating during a national exam, using elaborate high-tech gear to do so.

Is that really the best strawman you can come up with? We're talking about doping in athletics, not academic exams. Try to focus.

I'm thinking the Russians are taking cues from their Chinese neighbors.

Caught doping:
Russian athletes
American athletes

Not caught doping:
Chinese athletes

I think it's significantly more likely the Russians are taking cues from their neighbors across the Bering Strait.

It's not compulsory for you to repeatedly humiliate yourself in this manner, ya know. You are allowed to save the attempted smear campaigns for subjects you know at least a tiny bit about.

Chinese Track and Field with one or two exceptions is not up to the same standard as the top western nations (Russsia included)

However let's look at the state sponsored doping of the Chinese swim teams back in the 90's !!!!!

:lol: You are correct, he is trying. But wont work for him, Russian athletes are not tested only in Russia but also in the locations where they compete. Unless Russian athletes managed to bribe everywhere they compete I'm not convinced about his accusations. On top of everything he is verified liar :D

Exactly. Chinese use hard practice and discipline instead of needles full of cow hormones.

Annndd Neglect things like Education, the Human Body, the rights of said athletes. Did you see what happens to those athletes at the end? How would you feel if you had to actually sell the medals earned at an olympics b/c you don't have the money to survive?

I would feel proud of what I had achieved during my sporting career, with fond memories of my time at the top.

Doesn't sound any different to the numerous pop, movie and TV stars who are discarded by the industry and end up in some sort of low-skill job without any of the money they had during their entertainment careers.

What's the difference? Person prepares for high competition career from a young age, enters said profession and does well, is unable to sustain it and exits the industry.

Something borrowed from Wikipedia's page about you:
Bernie Sanders was born and raised in the borough of Brooklyn, in New York City. He graduated from the University of Chicago in 1964. While a student, Sanders was a member of the Young People's Socialist League...

Or in other words you are worshiper of Soviet/Russian and Chinese Socialism. So you should be Left-wing oriented, but in your posts you present your self as Right-wing oriented or better said Ultra-nationalist.
IDK how can you chose a name that has nothing in common with any word you say.

P.S. Unfortunately there is no cure for every sickness, and Bernie Sanders has one of those incurable sickness.

Kind of as a secondary one lure (and I caught a biggun too!) but mainly because no one else had posted anything on it yet.
