Lance A. and doping??
 
From what is coming out it appears many riders over the last 10 - 12 years have been doping, not only the US Postal team but others as well (according to Hamilton, the entire peloton was doing it to some degree) and the team doctors were clearly guilty of providing and endorsing all this.

How could this secret be kept successfully for so many years. Is there nothing sacred any more? How could so many guys beat the system?

I have no sympathy for any of these guys, guess I'm just grossly disappointed that these things are so prevalent in so many sports. Football, baseball, cycling, what other sports have this problem as well.

Thoughts on this fiasco???

Starts in college. Maybe earlier. Popping Ritalin during finals week. Buying your date a few drinks. It's a competitive world. Everyone is looking for an edge. Nothing new.

And here I thought all these enhancing substances were for having a good time. I didn't know I was supposed to be competitive.



Oh wait, I guess I was.... ;) :D
