Dwayne Leverock is my new favorite professional athlete,
I'm going to go fill out that master's thesis survey about him.

Yeah, I read about that. Even more suspicious than the
Serie A team official who jumped out a window. I think
it was Dick Pound's Nazi Frogmen what did it.

Are WADA officials even allowed into Jamaica?

I thought it was Putin putting money on an Ireland win and having the
coach threaten to reveal all, until the police disclosed it was due to
strangulation. The modern KGB is much more sophisticated than that.

I'm surprised they don't hold more downhill MTB races in Jamaica where
WADA officials testing for pot can be disappeared as easily as a
footballer's operation puerto blood bag.

If cycling needs a bit more publicity, how about emulating cricket and
having one the team DS's murdered, possibly by Unibet or Lotto contract
killers, during the TDF.

That is fookin' unbelievable! I have _never_ seen someone move so
fast that their entire upper chest skeletal structure didn't have time
to respond!

I think the next person I see with one of those yellow wristbands is
going to get a bust in the mouth. It's a pandemic, I tell ya, and
it's gotta stop.
