... for ruining yet another Tour de France.
Personally, I love it every time a pro cyclist gets caught doping. I think that it shows that cycling is NOT the most doped up sport, it's just the only sport that actually CARES. Barry Bonds and Mark McGuire doped up for years, MLB does nothing. The physique of an NFL player is not normal, nothing. There is even talk that human growth hormone is running around the PGA, nothing. In fact, these sports are even tolerant of non-performance enhancing drug use. Get caught smoking up? Its a one game suspension or some other slap on the wrist.
The doping stories lately may be more newsworthy than the actually cycling, but I look forward to more and more cyclists getting caught. Sooner than later they are going to get the picture.
