Bruyneel's 10-year ban

[Witkop]

Chop the tallest trees down first. 80% of the crimes are committed by 20% of the criminals, which means 50% of the crimes are committed by 1% of the criminals. By taking out the big six half the rot has been removed. Now lets aim for the next biggest six dopers, and leave the poor fun riders alone.

Are we still talking about doping that happened last century? Fark...

 

I hate doping but this 20 year long on off fart arsing approach to doping is worse than the actual doping. Knowing this year's winner before the previous years winner has been clarified in court, trials that last 90% as long as the ban, digging up skeletons then banning then, banning people after they've retired. I'm sick to death of the post mortem approach to "fixing" doping.

 

Many of these characters are part of the root cause of many of the current issues and individuals around today.

To properly tackle the effects of doping, the sport needs to go back 20 odd years with a carving knife for the skeletons, otherwise all that's happening is a band aid over a festering wound.
