I bet he is angry though. It's just a thin veneer of ennui that hides a whole shoot-storm of rage.

Glad to see the report highlights that "The method for communication is very easy."

Not doping as such but it's been a quiet day. Dutch gymnast with previous for recreational use goes on an unauthorised lash.
It's not deserving of a Donald, more this....

Officials who claim they had "no other choice" are complete nobbers.
Their hands may even have been tied. They were unlikely to send anyone home who stood a chance of a medal.

From the BBC live coverage:
"A Kenyan athletics coach has been sent home from Rio after allegedly posing as an athlete and giving a urine sample.
Kenya said sprint coach John Anzrah "presented himself as an athlete" and "even signed the documents" for the doping test.
"We cannot tolerate such behaviour," said Kip Keino, chairman of the National Olympic Committee of Kenya.
Anzrah is the second Kenyan official to be sent home over doping issues after track and field manager Michael Rotich."

And the athlete he posed as was 800-meter runner Ferguson Rotich, so watch out for him being on fire in heat 1 at 2.10pm today...

He might deserve punishment for skipping the test, but surely burning him is a bit extreme?

Not quite. Apparently he didn't pose as the runner in order to take a drug test, he borrowed his ID to get into the athletes' village (not all coaches and staff have been allowed full access). While he was there, he (well, Rotich) was tagged for a random test. Instead of just admitting he wasn't Rotich, he took the test... but it's obvious he isn't Rotich.
