Fuck 'em.

Let them keep publishing the TUEs and at the same time, get our 'hackers' into the system to release the full details about Russian athletes; TUEs, bans, warts 'n all!

Or ignore the athletes and simply start to publish the wealth of the Russian ruling elite.

This might be difficult to do retrospectively in terms of gaining consent from the athletes but it would completely undermine the hackers. After all, all they are doing is publicising legitimate uses of substances allowed under the rules.

This is what makes the whole thing a bit weird. TUEs (agree or otherwise on individual cases) have been the result of a process between the athlete and WADA/ National doping agency. The use of prohibited medications has been approved for treatment to a particular condition. Given the examples you provided below, would anyone really withhold hemorrhoid treatment?

Somehow, this is supposed to be on a par with state supported doping. Still, when you are sinking into the cess pit, lobbing a bit of shyte around doesn't do you any more harm.

WADA now say that the leaks have been doctored. I dunno, you can't even trust russian sponsored hackers.
I refuse to have a battle of wits with an unarmed person.

NS. Gone but not forgotten.

I saw a cyclist who had a previous drugs ban, Tiernan Locke, on the BBC this morning claiming that the Sky Team doctor had offered him Tramadol, even though he had no pain symptoms. A claim denied by Sky.

Can anyone think of a less performance enhancing drug than Tramadol? Medical grade heroin, perhaps?
