If I had my druthers, I druther that any russian wrestlers be banned from these games, w/ or w/o the russian flag.

There are those in the camp, if you want to be the best, you would have to wrestle the best. Other wise you would have that proverbial asterisk next to the gold medalist 0f '23. Let 'em wrestle!

With all of russia's transgressions of athletes getting caught w/illegal dope in their bodies... or getting banned because Putti-pute bullied his way into Ukraine and bombing the hell out of the Ukraine people. Tough lollipops... you don't get to wrestle. That's the price you pay.

Sad to say... UWW leaned toward participation w/o the flag. So they can't participate in the team scoring, or get on the podium w/o their national anthem playing? (Woop-tee-doo, they may have the lionshare of the medals just the same... they can live w/that.)

Maybe they'll just throw a 'Z' on their singlet.  That is not a country.
