Proposal to "fix" the sport
Since it appears that you can't trust anyone - unless Contador wins
and then I know for a fact he's clean - I propose a rethinking of the entire concept of anti-doping. It should be illegal, but it should be encouraged. It would have the same, ahem, Russian roulette attraction that won Christoper Walken the Oscar in The Deer Hunter. This from IMDB: "During some of the Russian Roulette scenes, a live round was put into the gun to heighten the actors' tension. This was Robert De Niro's suggestion. It was checked, however, to make sure the bullet was not in the chamber before the trigger was pulled." Yikes! New betting categories could be created with odds on who will get busted and for what - a sure money maker if there ever was one. There could be "rehabilitation" centers for convicted dopers...each attended by 72 far-from-virgin-porn-stars (can anyone say second career?). There'd obviously be lots of sponsors with _very_ deep pockets - drugs and porn in the same market? Hoo boy, better open up another shell corporation in the Cayman Islands! I nominate me as the talent scout. R |

Because actors have such a great track record with firearms on set: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brandon_Lee http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jon-Erik_Hexum Now, in fairness, that's two on-set deaths in, oh, the last 30 years or so, is not that scary. By comparison, twice as many actors have been killed by getting hit by helicopter blades.
