    You say Britain is performing better because the playing field is more even. This is not a fact, this is an opinion. There
    are a thousand possible reasons for a nation to do well in sports. Including better doping. You quote "Larry O" as if he
    were a reliable news agency. You say the zero tolerance motto is truth.

    To me that sounds like trolling, since you seem to be smarter than that.

    My apologies if I am mistaken.

    What is fact is that in any sport doping athletes on average easily outperform non doped ones. So all winners are
    suspect. If as you say Britain is doing better now, it could be Britain is on a more level playing field, it could also be
    because they just learned to dope better.

    What do you think about Bradley Wiggins winning the tour when Sky was using a known doping doctor? In my opinion,
    you cannot win the tour without doping. Unless you can catch all sinners. And you can't. So you saying the brits are
    better in cycling to me means they dope better than before.

    If Britain are 'doping better' then why have so many more Americans been caught. It's not as if USA a third world country.

    You have to admit, all evidence points to Britain getting better as the playing field becomes more even, after PED scandals, anything else is merely clutching at straws, and being British myself, I know the culture we live in and the reason for more success is not because 'we are doping better'.

    if it weren't for the doping, murray would have dominated tonight. poor squeaky clean brits getting robbed by the inferior, drug addled inhabitants of the rest of the world.

    If Brits are doping better, they should get caught less. If they
    were just doping more, then your statement would be true.

    And no not everything is pointing in that direction. It could be , it
    could also not be.

    Bottom line is whether or not you believe the athlete passport and in
    and out of competition tests have a great effect on doping prevalence.
    You believe it has, I do not believe it has. I think it just forces
    athletes to dope smarter, which is more expensive.

    That's what happened to Carl 'The Cobra' Froch against Andre 'I'm not taking the test' Ward. :-(
