    How come Scott never came out and said anything about Sundby’s doping? Or Johaug’s doping? Or the fact that the Norwegians have been systematically using asthma meds for over two decades. Where was her outrage when Mark Bonar, a British doctor was found to have doped at least 150 athletes in the UK? What about the TUE system, which is frequently abused? How many top athletes in the US, UK and Canada use the TUE system? One of the more flagrant athletes are Serena Williams, Chris Froome and the Yates twins. Simon Yates is on the verge of winning the Vuelta Espana. Froome won the Giro/Tour double earlier. Serena, miraculously comes back to make two straight Grand Slam finals at the age of 36. Where is Beckie Scott on that?

    This isn’t about doping, this is pure politics. One less anti-Russian in WADA. Maybe now we can get serious…

    You confuse eggs with oranges and mistake oranges for apples and juggle them, drop them and neither fruit salad nor an omelette emerges…

    SkiTrax, I would suggest you vet xcskier22 as the posts now and in the past have always dealt with Russian-based issues: even one where a response was in collaboration with the point of view in an all too convenient fashion. These posts seem attempts to obfuscate around Russian matters and are either production of an ex-partriot longing for the motherland or a bot-like production in service to what we have seen outed on Facebook and other social media platforms.
