    Beckie Scott is Russophobic. She could care less about doping, it seems like. All her rants are leveled at Russians. When given proof that the Norwegians have been systematically doping with asthma meds, she said nothing. When Sundby failed doping tests after two races, she said nothing. When Johaug was busted with anabolic steroids, she said nothing. When Sachenbacher Stehle, one of her rivals was popped in 2014, she said nothing, when the Austrians and Estonians were busted two months ago, she said nothing…When will she say something that’s actually constructive and not just go on a tangent about Russians?
