Russians Men's Quad banned.

My perspective is that the Russians compromised the entire Final Qualification Regatta. Being in the lane right next to Russia, we got waked by all the way down the course and were not able to produce our best race in the Final. I honestly think the FISA should expand the event from 10 to 12 and let our boat and the Chinese race in Rio. But we need to be fighting for it right now.

It's appalling, the depths people can sink to for glory. Good luck with this fight. We're all right behind you.
