well this is definitely the end for cycling right? I doubt someone is going to take any event as something serious ever again.
big shame, the sport was quite interesting to watch

I'm really curious about what happened with cycling that doping became so blatant. Because it's hard to imagine that there is no doping in most of the elite sports (just as a token, look at the biceps of todays sprinters, they are bigger than weightlifters from 30 years ago).
But then, why is it that we know of so many cases in cycling and not other disciplines? In other sports they seem to uncover a few cases now and then, but somehow they avoid the disrepute: thinking again about sprinters, we had the Greek athletes in the 04 olympics, we had Marion Jones and others in the USA team, and still somehow people don't seem to think that those who were not caught, although training with them and performing at the same level, were cheating?
