You would be surprised by the amount of your co-workers getting advantages with Provigil or stimulants like Vyvanse. Of course you would never hear about it.

I’m an advocate of PEDs in sports. I wanna see 500 feet home runs every time. I want pitchers throwing 100 regularly. I want to see frickers flying in the stands in football from the hits. I want frickers dunking from the 3 point line, and I want horses breaking records at Kentucky Derby.

only because they opted for blood transfusions on the tour de france. that's sick and sad that it was taken to that level in order to compete.

Most athletes are young, often gullible, and under intense pressure to perform. If dope was legal, their agents and trainers would be able to get them to take anything. They’d be worse guinea pigs than what some are now.

“Kid, you don’t quite have what it takes to play in the league, but take this and you have a shot.” Most of them would take it without even asking what it was.

What happens when you ban EPO and waste resources towards developing drug tests to detect it. Prof athletes and their doctors/trainers will always be one step ahead. Until the college level, we shouldn't be worried about your hs kids doping as one poster mentioned. It costs a fortune, one EPO shot is over a grand.

We both know the MLB could use the ratings right now.

Lance Armstrong is the greatest cyclist ever. By a long shot.

7x Tour de France winner in a row, the most challenging endurance event in sports. Imagine how pissed you would be as a European, watching an American show up out of nowhere and against all odds to lead a team this dominant [and have the USPS Express team as their sponsor to add insult to injury]. They went postal to the point of pulling out all stops to ignore everything and everyone to bring down Lance and erase his legacy. This would be like the US showing up out of no where and winning the next 7 World Cups. I've lived and worked in Austria, there's a lot of haters over there haha.

Do you even pedal bro?

Honestly, that is so far from fact it isn't funny. Lance was all about one race a year, the tour. Eddie Merckx was a far better cyclist than him, when Eddie showed up everyone else raced for second. Eddie raced and won all the grand tours and all the major classics.

While you can argue (and I would tend to agree) Armstring was the greatest TdF rider but not even in the top 5 of the greatest cyclist and it is doubtful you will find hardly anyone who is a cycling fan who things Armstrong was greater than Eddie.
