I'm told the Canadian team uses gin-and-seven for the same purpose.
Speaking of Canadian team, what's far more shocking than a doping Russian is that this is the first time since curling returned to the Olympics that Canada has come away without a medal.

What is not shocking, is that Canada beat the pants of USA in Olympic medal count! Not bad for a country with less people living in it than a single US state.

Yeah, I heard all the interviews with the distraught curling fans on the radio. Not just CBC but several stations.
You're right I didn't read the article. There's no way to post a link to radio interviews you heard three days ago, so I googled it and posted the first link that came up.
