World Anti-Doping Agency: Russia Should be Banned from the 2016 Olympics
http://www.bbc.com/sport/athletics/34765444

http://espn.go.com/olympics/trackand...field-athletes

After a long investigation, WADA just released a shocking report today accusing the Russian Federation of running a huge state-sponsored doping scheme, including helping their athletes avoid detection in drug testing. They named 10 Russian athletes and coaches who should be banned for life, and given how corrupt Russia apparently is and the little amount of time remaining to the next olympic games, they also recommend that the IOC ban Russia from competing in Rio. (Not sure if the recommendation is just Russia's track and field team, or all of their athletes)

The IOC is not obligated to agree to the recommendation, but there's pressure all over the world on the IOC to hammer Russia.

I was talking round numbers. If you nailed me down to a decimal point, I would have gone a couple points higher.

We'd still be talking about something very near 50/50 in any case, though, which is what I'm saying. It's just the nature of this sport. It's not like football where the best teams in the league win practically every week.

Agreed, we probably won't see Toronto in the ALCS for a long long time.

They were an error away from winning in 4 games.

Jays never had the Royals on the ropes.

Yep. It kind of makes my point about the nature of the MLB playoffs (and baseball itself), doesn't it? That a worse team than the Royals (or a better one, if you believe PB) was that close to beating the WS champs.

No, because they didn't win. The better team always wins the series. Every time.

An error away, you said. And yet you say there's no randomness or luck in baseball.

They weren't intimidated by us, like the BJs and Mets who saw us and immediately pooped their pants.

No, that's poor defense on the Astros part.
