Angry
The Russian Olympic committee is embarassing itself with these recent protests. Clearly a nation humiliated with a lack of medals this Olympics...

What a pathetic display of sportsmanship - the Director sounds like a fifth-grader while trying to justify his position in the press. Pride is a very, very bad thing sometimes...

I'm not surprised that they are angry. With all the whining by Canada and the American media over the pairs figure skating, then with the Skiier (they should have disqualified her earlier, not 7 minutes before the event), I can't blame them.
