https://www.nbcnews.com/storyline/winter-olympics-2018/russian-curler-who-won-olympic-medal-suspected-doping-puts-sport-n849336 GANGNEUNG, South Korea — Fans of curling at the PyeongChang Winter Olympics describe the sport as cerebral, calculating and generally genteel. If you're wanting feats of physicality, they say, head over to the mountain for freestyle skiing. However, Monday's announcement that Russian curler Alexander Krushelnitsky — the winner of a bronze medal last week with wife Anastasia Bryzgalova in the mixed-doubles competition — is suspected of doping after failing a preliminary drug test has sent shockwaves through a sport not commonly associated with scandal. |

Trump needs to focus more so on the male vote. He should have nationalized the Boy Scouts when they decided to admit girls. Harambe4Trump AKA "FASHY" | |

This Latest incident will now cost Russia the chance to march under the Russian Flag in the closing Ceremony, for breaking the agreement that they would comply with the stipulations issued to them. They will march under the Olympic flag again. The Russian Flag will NOT fly at these games...

Oh, this is gonna put an itch in Putin's arse. The whole Russia Can't Be Russia at the Olympic Games is a national embarrassment for him and this idiot curler just justified the whole thing. lol Now I wasn't a bad curler when I was a kid. I was always able to put the rock where I wanted it to go. For the life of me I can't see where performance enhancing drugs would be a benefit to this athlete...
