Vladimir: Say It Isn't So

       Just as the Olympics are ending, news came out that an athlete from Russya is being investigated for drug violations(blood doping, etc).  The individual probably assumed he was safe because the drug in question is not new, and has been around for many years.  Maria Sharapova is possibly the most notorious user of the drug which was developed by the then USSR in Latvia in 1970.  How sad, tripped up by using a domestic staple.
      Perhaps the Olympic Athletes From Russya(OAR in official parlance) think that they can do things like the Kremlin does: take over a country(Ukraine), take over a peninsula(Crimea), invade a country(Syria) and not face any consequences.  Not happening.
    What sport are we talking about?  Curling?  NO, come on?  Curling, with broom pushers sweating profusely as they dance down the line?   Ridiculous, if true.   But the investigation continues.
Say it isn't so, VoVa.
