Toxicology reports

  • I think it's absolutely fantastic that German tv stations ARD and ZDF quit the Tour de France as soon as one single cyclist got caught with doping. It takes quite some balls to walk away from obviously a lot of commercial income to stand up for ethics, and sportsmanship.
  • Another tox-report eagerly awaited... Benoit did have some kind of steroids in him, but apparently our friendly neighbourhood CSI couldn't determine if these were present at the killings of his wife and son. Thus we'll never know what happened that faithful weekend. Of course everybody's going to spin it in their favour, so WWE will do a hatchet job on Benoit, FOX will turn it back yet again to steroids and the evils of pro wrestling, ex-workers of the industry will spout their personal grievances, company men will sing their praises, and the fans... well... will move on.
