Well, the point is that it is already being done on a widespread level at the upper echelons of sport, and that regulated use under the open supervision of doctors is better and safer than underground use.
Armstrong was doing more than this, I promise you.
See, it's not cheating if we don't call it that. Your examples do not seem comparable to me. We do numerous things to enhance our own performance all of the time, but we have arbitrarily drawn lines in that realm that can easily be moved.
Already done and gone, sorry
What idea is that? As I said above, it ain't cheating if we don't call it that.
I think this is incorrect. It would be done with close doctor supervision, in the open, as oppsed to now when it is done by fellow players in the back of the locker room. It would probably be less dangerous, not more so.
That's true. The truly dangerous and unknown substances would have to continue to be banned.
Totally disagree with you here. You may disagree with him, but dumb he ain't.
The argument being made by this author is being made from the perspective of the here and now, with the realization that there are many using these substances and practices already. Further, these things will never replace hard work and training. Do you think Armstrong simply had the best chemist? Is that why he won 7 Tours? Or was the combination of his amazing work ethic and training regimen alongside of doping?
