"If you've been following the sickening developments in the world of doping...Seems like a completely broken sport if you ask me."

I dunno, if the sport is completely broken, why follow it? Isn't that like complaining about doping in dog-fighting or pro wrestling? Evidently, pro cycling's been like that forever and ever; if you're looking for a "clean" sport to follow, look elsewhere.

The basic problem is that if you have unreasonable awards for performance, then you're going to have people willing to do unreasonable things to achieve those awards. You can have whatever system of drug testing you want, but if there's any way to get around it, people will. Remove the fame and the big money and you might get back to a cleaner sport.
