Perceive? I think we perceive pretty well. And that guy is someone I respect greatly but who has ZERO credibility on that topic after that bs.

And yes the problem is drugs, no question. I agree 100%. But I really think that tracks are reacting to the journalistic frenzy by grabbing guys on small traces of therapy drugs instead of grabbing the real cheaters in order to mak a sacrifice to the journalists and people as if to say "See we got one!!"" yeah great, go grab a guy with a trace of a bronchiodilater, that will really clean this up. Can't you see whats going on? Do you really think that they grabbed 4 guys the last two years all on the same positive by cooincidence? Or was it because those 4 guys get blasted by journalists(who don't bash their buddies who have a list of positives already) and they felt like they had to nail them on something to calm the masses?
