Hugh Januss said:Am I the only one who thinks it would be a good idea to restrict banned riders from all contact with their team, at least in any official or public capacity, until they are done serving their time?
I think it's insane that he can so casually hook up with his team at the training camp, if for no other reason than the optics. You'd think the media relations person for the team would pull someone aside and say, 'Hey, ya know what? This might make us look a bit too accepting, if not complicit'.
I fear that the fact that no one on the team thought this was questionable only reveals another clue as to how tightly woven the doping culture is enmeshed to team structure... Where's the outrage?
