Without precedent? They had a big doping system going on.

Good.
This is odd though. Not sure how I feel about it.

if any Russian athletes are given permission to attend, they won’t be competing under the Russian flag. They’ll compete under a neutral flag, and any medals they win won’t be credited to Russia.

Yep. And massive propaganda machine to cover it up. Great documentary about a cyclist who accidentally comes to befriend the doctor that informed on the Russian doping program and learn about the program.

It sounds more like an unprecedented move.

IOC worried about doping, but not about ruining the economy of a country like Brazil, who employed essentially slave labor. Sweet.

That documentary is pretty crazy. He accidentally stumbles into an international conspiracy. Not only is that interesting, but the Russian guy he interviews is quite the character. Plus there's some pretty obvious signs of at least one guy getting offed for the whole screw up. Russia takes their Olympics seriously.

You're talking about 2 completely different issues.

Good. Too bad they didn't do a better job back in the old Soviet Union days when all the female athletes looked like dudes and the dudes looked like mutant gods from Olympus.
