Put your money where your mouth is. How many of you would quit your job to send a futile message to the Russian government that you know fully well they are not likely to soften their stance? Really how many here would quit their job for this principal? All you people that busted your hump the last four years to get to where you are at the company you work at. All the sacrifices to your family. Just throw all that away to protest this. This is what you are expecting of the athletes.
There is a lot of selfish in this thread but it's not the athletes or Canadians. It's the hypocrites that expect people who have invested a large chunk of their lives in their sports to throw that away for a futile cause to appease a forum warrier using his keyboard to emphasize his nobleness.
