Russia the country and all its symbolism like Flags have been banned for doping.
I thought the same thing. I wonder if it's to allow the russian athletes that didn't cheat to compete. [Reply]

Ok. Is she competitive? I bet not in all-around. She might be a specialist.
Kayla whatsherface that does the commercial with the frisbee on the roof said she was amazed how little the girls were when she was in 5th grade.
