  JOSF! Many sports are riddled with drugs.
  With/without the aid of drugs, these guys are phenomenal athletes. Tough as nails!

  Leave this thread and go put your training wheels back on JOSF!

  So because it happens in other sports, that makes it ok?
  Of the last 15 guys to win the Tour, only 5 have been clean.

  cycling is by far one of the most drug riddled sports in the world.

  • i'm not saying it's ok.
    the fact remains, they're all on it. its an even playing field. those guys couldn't be competitive in that sport without drugs.– Hall1/2

    they are not ALL on it, so no it's not an even playing field.– JOSF2/2

  Awesome.

  I do enjoy watching the Tour but I do think they should now just let them take whatever drugs they want and see which drugged up cyclist wins. It'll save the hassle of weeks of testing and re-testing because we all know most of them are on something but they're on more and more advanced drugs that are harder to detect each year.

  all this bashing of cyclists on drugs is so misguided, pretty much every sport on the planet is riddled with it, but cycling has at least had the balls to come clean about it.
  who do you think are the ones shedding light on the drug use?
  its the cycling community and organisers, not some unseen sport over-lord.
  if other sports had the same courage, we would all be bashing them too...
  I say congratulations to the people in the cycling world being loud about this, maybe it can be an example to other sporting communities to also grow the fuck up!

  I cannot wait. My main man Alexander Vinokourov is out I believe.

  Maybe Valverde? I will be rooting for Big George Hincappie and a lot of others. The tour really needs to come through strong this year. The news of Tom Boonen was a real bummer. I would expect more cyclists to get busted, but hopefully no front runners. Imagine if other sports kicked out performance enhanced' users....the nfl, mlb, in the middle of the playoff run.

  My hats off to the tours decision makers.

  Stuart O'grady could make a nice run, cadel evans, dave zabrinski, maybe bobby julich gets another stage. There are a lot of guys who could make a run. It will be exciting to see who can out tactic who, and the play by play will be outstanding as usual.

  It's the only sporting event I truly get jazzed for...although I'm kinda psyched for the upcoming olympics for some reason.

  • Stuart O'Grady for the yellow?? Maybe a stage or two.– Antonelli
