Doping Scandals

August 5, 2006 2:19pm

Now, just because I enjoy riding a bike doesn’t mean that I enjoy watching other people ride them. But this American who won the Tour De France and turned up positive for drugs…blah…wtf, mate, wtf*nf?

What a way to help overshadow the long legacy of America’s greatest champion ever (seriously, who else comes close?), Lance A., than to have a US rider turn up positive for doping the year after. And what of the guy who now gets the title…I mean, he didn’t really win, and even if you think that he did win since drugs + riding = cheating and therefor a false win, well the guy didn’t get the glory of walking up onto a podium in the moment of success…

i really hope i’m wrong but for no reason at all i feel very wary of the drug testing system. i guess i did hear that traces of synthetic testosterone was found in his blood, and that seems fairly foolproof, but not being sure, personally, that the testing is without flaw, jaws my craw

i saw an old simpsons last night that i don’t think i’d seen (one of those ones where i’d stopped watching the simpsons) and there was this soda machine that could talk for one line and said, ‘i’m gonna cap a pop in yo’ ass’ and proceeded to shoot a soda out its dispenser

I don’t know much about these words you speak but i can assure you that success is two parts perspiration and 90% Legislation, with the President having the ability to shoot from the 3 Point line for a veto.
