Sure, the same way that having Rudy P. on Rock Racing makes everyone there a doper.
And yes, it was useless for Mr. Riis to admit to using EPO, because what has it gotten us? Really. Nothing. There is supposed to be some secret kind of meeting where officials will decide who actually won the 1996 tour, but who really cares now? The books have already been written.
Schleck sending a cycling coach money is no big matter. If they found drugs in his system, however, that would be a big matter.
