Anyone else happy like I am that the Russian doper didn't win a medal?

 

I wonder if this infraction will extend Russia's ban on official competition?

Does it matter? They still compete, the announcer call them Russia. The only thing missing is the national anthem but it’s not as if we don’t know who they represent.

It doesn't.   That's why I said official.   For a country that can't compete, they'll still send the second most athletes anywhere.

4th is decent for Team USA.

And after the Russian skater was allowed to compete after the failed drug test I didn't watch any more of the Olympics.

Least Olympics that I've ever watched.  Not because I was taking any type of stand or anything, my interest was just really down this year for some reason.  Not getting to see a lot of things live hurts my interest.

There was nothing in this Olympics that was must see TV for me. The closest thing to must see for me was Shaun White's finale. I am much less interested in the Winter Olympic sports than the summer. I checked out what was on TV and tuned in if I had nothing else going on. I have no clue what was live and what wasn't and it is a total non factor for me. There were many nights when I chose to watch something else on TV. 

I purposely refused to watch the doper compete.  On that issue, I don't want her to have to answer one more question about it. Anyone who has a question about the doping should be going to her coach and higher ups in the ROC. They are the ones who have to answer those questions and I hope they feel some heat.
