Arise Sir Drug Cheat

[Burney]

To different degrees within different sports.

Have to say it does not bother me one jot. The nuances and many definitions of cheating are simply too tiresome to allow oneself to get worked up about.

I think once you accept that there are those at the very top level using unfair means to win, it becomes naive not to realise that it must be well-nigh impossible to win without those artificial advantages. Thus, you have to assume virtually anyone who wins is bent.

Think about it: Russia was running a state-sponsored doping scheme and only came fourth in the Olympic medals table. What does that suggest to you? It's essentially an arms race that forces everyone to use those means just to compete, so what else are people going to do?

It doesn't particularly bother me, either. What bothers me is the hypocrisy and naivety of imagining that it's only those guys who cheat and that 'our' guys must be fine.

Steak and spuds.

Those two are just clean mad young lads from West Cork, any person that lives in Ireland would probably know somebody like them.

There was a documentary on RTE about them over Xmas, now very obviously beyond the interviews they are hugely dedicated sportsmen but I am not sure they have had a lot of PR or media training.

Yes. I'm sure there's not EPO or other illegal performance enhancing substances in West Cork. They haven't even got the internet yet, have they?

Perfectly normal behaviour behind closed doors.

I have seen adults do this in restaurants mind you.

No adult ought to drink milk. It's wrong.

What? How dare you suggest that all our brave, asthmatic cyclists who receive mysterious medical packages whose contents nobody can remember might be in any way suspicious?! How dare you suggest that Sir Braddles Wiggles' sudden 'retirement' may simply be a means of quitting before he gets busted!? These are vile calumnies!

You, sir, are beneath contempt!
