I'm not sure whether I've sneered on record about forummers whose response to any cycling drugs scandal is 'there's worse than us', but if so, this is a bit of an apology.
To hear the hysteria of the BBC commentators when a brit runner drug cheat won a race and her absolute contempt for the entire system, would have made my blood boil were I a patriot: can you imagine a cyclist adopting the same stance?
I also can't stop myself wondering what is the cause of these footballers all falling over at the same time.
None of this excuses drug cheating cyclists, in my view, but it does perhaps cheer me a little that we do seem to be 'better' at trying to clean up our sport.
