Can you point to a dirtier more corrupt sport ?


Tennis. Soccer. NBA Basketball. Hockey.

The whole ****ing Olympics movement, top to bottom.

Dumbass.

Bull**** - show the stats you ****ing ****.

There are more positive tests in cycling and more org corruption (UCI)
than perhaps all others combined. And in %s cycling wins hands
down

You really do have your head up your ass Schwartzstein McJewstein


That's why cycling should conduct their sport the way the other
sports I mentioned do. The positive tests would stop and we could
get back to the sport.

Ask google about Chris Herren, he's been in the news lately. What
you'll find is that in the NBA freakin' HORSE(!) is under the radar.
The difference with cycling is that basketball isn't run by morons.

PS And when you watch the next Winter Olympics in Russia, ask
yourself how this could happen in an organization that is less
corrupt than the UCI.

Didn't they run the same story in 1960, 1967, 1984, 1988, 1998, 2006,
and other years?

Ignoring the problem is a more likely answer. It works for the NFL, the
NBA, FIFA, etc. Why argue with success?

Zero tolerance accomplishes nothing. Call for: All riders to 'fess up.
General amnesty. Stop the madness of multiple mountain climbs and/or
summit finishes in the same week(of major tours). Better hotels,
shorter transfers. The current testing protocols seem to be working;
testing during competition should not be done in the middle of the
night. Don't pounce on sub-therapeutic positives. Pro riders are not
flying airliners, operating heavy machinery, or performing surgery.


If cycling would adopt the testing procedures that other major sports
did all this would stop and we could get back to watching the sport.

Sports that are not run by idiots don't have these problems.


This is totally obvious to anyone with the observational abilities of a
cucumber.

Those 350 lb guys in the NFL that can run a 5 second 40 yard dash,
you're certain they're clean? You should be, after all, they "never
failed a test". The stats PROVE it! That's really the mark proving that
everything's on the up-and-up. "Never failed a test" is Anton's gold
standard for cleanliness.

Either admit that Lance is and always has been clean, or admit that you
have your head up your ass. There's no other alternative.

Can't find the good stuff to throw today?

Boxing. By a mile.

I'm not even including pro wrestling because it's assumed to be fixed
and anyone with a negative tox screen wouldn't be allowed in the pit.

Perhaps we need something similar for our very own Patsy McQuaid:

Pro wrestling is a sport ?


It is entertainment, right?
Cycling is a sport.
Cycling is entertainment.
Therefore wrestling is a sport.
