This is false. It wasn't individual players on their own in baseball. Owners and teams were tacitly encouraging players to use steroids - which is why they didn't test, or pass any rules against PED use. Even if a player was doping in the 90s, he wasn't breaking any rules.

Facts are that Lance won on a level playing field. All of the cyclists were doping. I would put it at 90% and it may actually be higher. Stripping titles in cycling is ridiculous. who are you going to give the titles to? you would have to go down the chain pretty far to some unknown peleton dog to find someonen who was "clean" and even then there would be no way to know.

Sure, there was quiet encouragement and hush hush acceptance, but it's not like cycling where the guy deciding if you were going to make the team or not was tossing you a bag of EPO and testosterone viles and syringes
