By: DW Berne: The Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) upheld doping sanctions on Thursday that will prevent Russia from competing as a nation at international sporting events, albeit shortening the exclusion from four years to two. The ban covers the Tokyo Olympics and the 2022 soccer World Cup in Qatar. Russian athletes will still be able to compete as “neutral athletes,” without Russia’s flag, team uniforms, or anthem.

Apparently, though, shaming folks doesn t carry the sting it once did. The Russians got caught running the biggest state-sponsored doping operation in the history of the planet in 2016, and despite being busted twice since, never really shut it down. And why would they, given their disciplinary history? The first time the International Olympic Committee caught on, it ordered the Russians to keep their flag, anthem and junket-loving officials – but not necessarily their athletes – out of the 2018 Winter Games in Pyeongchang. This is the kind of impression that made: yet another Russian anti-doping lab got busted soon after – for tampering with the very data that was supposed to prove things had changed. ....
