Professional bicycle racing is a filthy sport and, in a perfect world,
the Tour de France would go away and never come back. Certainly there
is no reason for anyone to watch cycling's premier event with any
faith that it is clean.

The guys a hypocrite because he assumes cycling is the only "filthy
sport". The only difference between the so called filthy sport and the
"clean sports" he normally covers (such as super squeaky-clean American
football which appears to be his speciality
(http://www.philly.com/inquirer/colum...phil_sheridan/) is cycling
authorities do not cover up, or at least they're don't have enough money
to cover up properly.
Anyway he's from Philadelphia.
