saw enough to convince me then. To say after the enormous USADA investigation that there is no evidence is a sign of a man living on another planet. Whereas with Wiggo there is nothing but insinuations by association -- i.e. because he's a cyclist and didn't rant loudly enough about his opposition to doping this year. For the record, and this isn't the first time I've written it in public, I believe both Verbruggen and McQuaid should be forced to resign and the UCI needs a thorough shakedown. The Sky policy, while working unintentionally to support omerta, is predicated on the same logics as the British Olympic Associations life-time ban for drug cheats that was over turned because it conflicted with the WADA code. It was also seen as unfair as other countries allowed athletes who had served their bans to compete. Brailsford was made to look silly over Millar and the Olympics he risks looking very silly again. It's a knee-jerk reaction created in a moment of crisis to try and placate a braying and often overly sanctimonious press that like nothing more than a scalp or two. Policies designed in this sort of environment rarely work. I'm sure this is Sky and not Brailsford -- but he who pays the piper etc. Sky, due to their Murdoch connections have to be very, very careful to avoid any adverse publicity and this is their attempt to manage that risk. I guess, also they are fairly confident of their riders
