Did Katusha buy Free Doping Ticket 2015 ?

Re:

The Katushas have been carrying those big round pills in their shorts all season.
Kristoff was actually asked about it. Claimed they are 'salt tablets'.

That was from TDF last year, after he had diarrhea for a couple of days.

And he even showed the pill to Norwegian TV 2.

Jurgen vd Broeck fourth, ahead of Froome? Insane.

 

[bigcog]

At this rate he's going to kick Berties a** in the giro lol

Wow, a Katusha 1-2. At least I've heard of Spilak...

I'm so glad I decided not to watch today's TT.

I mean, for the first time in some time I feel like this sport is pissing all over me. Not even the most credulous of fans can look at this year's Katusha performances and not feel their bowels wanting to come out. I hate being made a fool of.

I guess you missed 2012 and 2013 then.

I didn't miss 2012 and 2013. Nothing resembles this level of shamelessness if you consider what's clearly still to come.

Really? What makes Katusha different from Sky?

That 2012 and 2013 Sky had virtually no results outside of stage races, and mostly never relied on more than two riders to deliver. Not the performences per se, but how Katusha wins and wins big without an eyebrow being frown.

I do agree with the outside stage races part, but their -12/13 seasons, in stage races, were beyond ridiculous compared to what Katusha has done this year. Careful with the stones.

I wasn't criticizing your English, I was asking from where did you expect eyebrows to be raised? The forum? The media?

Oh, sorry. I don't think there has been the adequate amount of indignation in this parts, we seem to have lots of people happy with the status quo. Seeing today, for instance, attenuated by Froome being beaten by the riders in question. You know, these guys are cool so who cares they dope, or even not grasping the obvious. I don't really mean the media, I prefer outside of the forum in general.

And how fast were the masses or forumites to point fingers? Very quick and on a rather large scale compared to the conformism or lack of interest with Katusha. That's what I mean by being ''pissed upon'', the lack of interest. Cassandra complex. I'm sorry but I think Katusha's [obvious] team program can rival with that of Sky, they have had hordes of domestiques in race finales where a pletora of leaders had already been dropped.

 

[The Hitch]

Well Zakarin hasn't won a Tour de France has he? He hasn't even podiumed one. He hasn't even podiumed a grand tour. Hell he hasn't even come top 10 in one.

Anyway, its purely your own perception that people don't care about Katusha. Everyone already said they dope. What more do you want?

 

[GuyIncognito]

You're both right.

The reason nobody's up in arms is that nobody's coming in here defending Katusha and claiming they're all doing it clean, as everyone pretty much assumes they're dirty.
Meanwhile with Sky we had people coming out of the woodwork pointing fingers and essentially saying 'See? These fine upstanding young clean brits are beating those nasty wog dopers because SCIENCE!'.

When you see *** on the sidewalk, you don't stop and argue about it, you just move on.........unless someone tries to sell it to you as caviar. That's when the yelling starts.

Which topic are you exactly replying to? Oh wait, a Katusha doping thread! If you think Katusha has been ridiculous this year, they are still far away from the ridiculousness Sky performed, and even yet to win a GT!

Maybe Katusha has borrowed the 'marginal gains'

Edit. why is quoting a post such a mess?

Dont worry, 2004 Olympic TT Gold Medalist Eki will sort out any doping at Katusha, he has shown an iron fist in the past with Erik Zabel
