It is hard to be a fraud when most of the rest of the peloton is also doing it. Yeah he was a jerk about it but I am going to give it to him, if everyone else is doping and he still "won" he had to have been better than everyone else even if they were all scumbag dopers. However I won't strong arm this thread into a different direction.
