Russians Cheated in Olympics by Politics

These Olympics are complete joke. No way Michael Phelps would win 9 gold medals if Soviet Union still existed. Now that wall has fallen and political system has changed forever, Russia still good but not good enough against Americans and Chinese athletes. Yes times must change but this is no good for my nation's athletes. Now there is no money from government for sports and we are losing our heros. Once we rule these games but no more anymore. Premier Putin is mob thug and many people die because of him. He is dangerous and people fear him greatly. It is a joke that he is in China when all sports hates him. Now we are at war with Georgia. Does world care? I think not. Americans once feared us. We were superior. We ruled games. Now, we take too many bronze medals instead of golds. Why must this change and work against us? I live in United States now for 10 years. Good luck to all of you in these games. May best people always win despite cheaters and dopers. Chinese cheat. No way girls were 16. What a crime. Thank you very much.

Premier Putin is mob thug and many people die because of him. Which differs from Soviet Premiers, Presidents and Tsars of the last 200 years how, exactly?

Hey, you're a Russian Olympic fan. I've got a question for you: Were those actually women on yor track teams back in the day? My god, I was only in 7th grade when the USSR dissolved, but your womens teams were more masculine then the US wrestling team. Sheesh!

you say thank you very much like some one asked for your opinion. in your other post you say you like America...10 years, huh? your country is superior, and you have lived her for 10 years? you are just makin statements to rile people up to get under their skin, and to be honest you made me angry....everything that is wrong with our contry stems from immigrants like you. Go spout of about the mother land in the mother land. If your people, and your country are soo superior than go back. No American wants you here to bash our country and our athletes. No one wants you here to pass judgments on our flaws as a society. Go away... go see how far ideas like personal freedom and freedom of speech, go see how far that gets you in your country...so you wanna be proud of something, be proud to live in THIS country, be proud that our borders pittied your pathetic plight and need for money and wer LET YOU IN. you should stop pretending where your from was soo much better than where you are and be thankful for that flag and what it represents.

"you are just makin statements to rile people up" - that's ewxactly what this was... some people find these sort of stunts to be "humorous". Of course, they also read Jay Mariotti every day, too.

"everything that is wrong with our contry stems from immigrants like you."

wow... just a huge fucking wow. How about people who can't speak/spell English words, that's a problem from immigrants, right?

People come to this country for work. My family didn't come here because they hated their country and thought America was the coolest. They came here cuz there was a ton of open/cheap land in western New York, and shoe factories in Boston.

Imagine a Loyalist British slogan in 1770s New England: "If you don't like how these colonies are run, then you can get out."

As much as a misguided fellow this person might seem to be, it's never cool to hate on someone just because they love their country, even if they don't live in it. If they pay their taxes, work, mow their lawn, shop at Wal-Mart, eat McDonalds, and drink Coca-Cola; they're doing their part in this country. And because they're in this country, they have rights, such as the freedom to think whatever they want.

apparently RAW you missed the point, i wasn't immigrant bashing, and if you follwed your American history at all, you would know that plenty of areas in New England tried to stay loyal to England during the Revolution. What i meant by my comment that you quoted, our country is a melting pot, but when immigrants choose to bring their synicism about our country and then also chose to take advantage of the prosperity it irritates me. I am not english I have spainish origins....i know I have no more right to land beneath my feet than this dweeb who wrote this article. Here is my bottom line...I was not saying Immigration is the cause of our country's problems, I was saying immigrants like Igor, who hold onto their nationalism sooo tight that "they actually bite the hand that feeds them" and i am sorry but i believe sport and celebrity gained from sport goes hand in hand with politics. Ask the Russians about an American girl who chose a cold water swim that dethawed some of the cold in the Cold War.

This is a sports website.

Igor isn't really Russian, he's trying to punk us.

This is what happens when a person who reads too much Jay Mariotti decides he is "funny".

Please relax.
