Performance enhancing drugs (PEDs) in:

Baseball. Is Clemens the LA of baseball?
Someone(s) even put up a list of those suspended. It's long.

Mixed Martial Arts. (shocking! Just shocking!)

NASCAR (they race trucks??)

Football. (really, where is the outrage?)

Track.

I suppose with Google, I could go on. Horse racing, anyone? Skeet? Hockey? Luge? If you look for it - you will find it. So why the drama over a dead team and a retired cyclist? Why the front page news whenever The Big LA is mentioned? (and not even that..."leaked" more like it)?

Except for the Clemens' case - which is more about perjury than taking PEDs - why don't any of these cases make the front page of the Washington Post? Is it because Americans truly hate cyclists and cycling and want to take us/them down? Is it to sell papers to all those "I hate those pansy lycra wearing Lance Wannabe's who get in my way" in their big gas guzzling cars? Is it because we are so cynical that we don't want to believe a cancer survivor did anything positive? We probably all know someone who didn't survive cancer. Makes us want to think - hey, Uncle Charlie (or dad) couldn't beat it....why you??

Personally, I think the fact that this tired stuff makes the news says more about society than it does about drugs, cycling, or justice.
