I read this half an hour ago, but the laughter has only just now died down, and I've been able to haul myself up off the floor and get to the keyboard...

    He'd better hope there's a Statute of Limitations, then.

    Quite. I especially like the assertion that the majority are clean and only the talentless cheat.

    It's hardly stopped doping in Italy. BUT it has made the Italian police / investigating magistrates take notice and if there is a complaint or suspicion, they are obliged to investigate. Had Spain had a law in place like this, Operacion Puerto would have had a very different conclusion that the hush,hush cover-up that been implemented.

    Carl Lewis is a fellow vegan, & I really want to like him for this reason alone.
    After this, however, it's impossible to do so...
    Laughably stupid is as nice as I can be about this I'm afraid.
    Unfortunately, it's prob exactly what folk want to hear in the run up to the Olympics

    Yes that's obviously rubbish.

    We all know that British athletes are clean, it's those dodgy foreigners who cheat
