Just when I was about to indulge in the nationalism the Olympics is designed to elicit, this bullshit snapped me back to my senses. Y’all don’t deserve her. Thank u, next.https://twitter.com/SportsCenter/status/1410807394515488770 …

Also: “Those same [“female classification”] rules are preventing Caster Semenya, Francine Niyonsaba and Margaret Wambui from competing in the women’s 800 this year as they have all refused to lower their testosterone with birth control pills.”https://www.letsrun.com/news/2021/07/18-year-old-phenom-400-christine-mboma-of-namibia-is-listed-as-withdrawn-from-400-meters-for-tokyo-olympics/ …

Did you read about poor Brianna McNeal? Truly just taking these incredible black women down in such cruel ways.
So McNeal is different. She was already banned for a year for missing *three* drug tests in a 12-month period. Athletes and their coaches, including McNeal, offer outrageous excuses for why they miss doping tests.
