On Lance Armstrong I agree, half of those riders have admitted blood doping, so what, strip his wins and give it to the guy that finished 46th?? What is too bad about that is that Lance Armstrong was the best thing that happened to that sport, and also one of the best things that happened to raising money for cancer research. They have pretty much just killed their own sport because without Lance, the TV audience will simply not be there.

On to doping/juicing etc....

I really don't know about basketball. Football - they need to be big and strong so there will always be people trying to put on the muscle. Baseball - sure, they need the strength and bat speed. Juice will help. Basketball - I just don't know. yes guys are jumping higher, but you can point to the training these days. Perfect example is Jerel McNeal. When he got to MU he could barely dunk, but only with a running head start and no defenders. When he left he could throw down in traffic any time he wanted. Large in part because of how Todd Smith trains the guys. He trains them to be more athletic, not to be stronger.
