One top (Black) female Olympic athlete is banned for using a mild recreational, non performance enhancing drug, another top (White) female Olympic athlete is allowed to compete despite using a performance enhancing drug. No, two different, separate sets of rules definitely not in play here!
Has more to do with what country they came from.
ReplyDeleteGood point, however, I would think the US of A would have some amount of sway on how their athletes are treated, as well as some amount of say on the athletes of other countries and how the governing rules apply to all. I'm not hearing any major pushback here...
ReplyDeleteThe US has far less sway in international sports than you might think.
ReplyDeleteHonestly, I wouldn't know- I would just think they'd at least scream and jump up and down a bit more...
