The same drug that Maria Sharapova tested positive for, another Russian cheater (is "Russian Cheater" a redundant term?)
It is bad enough that few Russians allowed to compete are doing so as "OAR" (Olympic Athlete from Russia) now a freaking mixed double curler is cheating!
They are so corrupt that the entire delegation should be sent home.

Monday's announcement that Russian curler Alexander Krushelnitsky — the winner of a bronze medal last week with wife Anastasia Bryzgalova in the mixed-doubles competition — is suspected of doping after failing a preliminary drug test has sent shockwaves through a sport not commonly associated with scandal.

Curler Alexander Krushelnitskiy tested positive for traces of meldonium, a medicine that increases circulation in the brain and aids with heart failure and chest pain, The New York Times reported Sunday. The World Anti-Doping Agency decided to ban the substance in September 2015, stating that it is classified as a performance-enhancing drug. The ban came into effect in January the following year.

Doping for curling? Wow.
Seriously though, I agree that all Russian athletes should have been banned. This was soooo predictable.

As news, this ranks right up there with "Rodman Gets Another Tattoo," "Scoop Melts Down After Warriors' Loss" and "Hannity Lies On Trump's Behalf."
