When I am skeptical about the allegations against certain riders,
people claim I am naive. In fact, I am merely more cynical about the
UCI et al than I am about each rider. The political culture of the
European leagues has been totally FUBAR since 1998. Sorry, I wish that
I was wrong. I love Europe but the culture of the judicial systems is
not comparable to the US standards.

dumbass,

i predict this will be the plot for season 4 of "the wire".

Dumbass,
Correct. Europe still needs to catch up on various US
innovations such as Guantanamo style prisons and waterboarding.

Hahaha.

How does that place in the world where the medieval rack, the dungeon,
and ultimately the Holocaust was born somehow come out squeeky clean in
terms of torture? You are ^%$#in naiive, man.

Face it. Bike racing is a euro sport. Drug use goes back to the very
beginning. Heck, they used to stop for beer and wine in the early days.
Get used to it.

And of course the world is centred around the USA and all other judicial systems should take yours as the perfect model. Yeah right!
I am just grateful that the european system is nothing like the corrupt system in the USA where you can buy your way out of just about any crime.If not with plea bargaining,just plain old bribery. Not that the european system is one hell of a lot better, so to me it is six of one and half a dozen of the other.Both systems stink of corruption.

Oh, give it a flippin' rest already. The world sucks, people suck, all
countries suck, all religions suck, we'll all be dead soon. Happy now?
Can we get back to the doping and racing or the racing and doping?
Thanks.
