Competitive sports is a cruel field, which maximizes the limits of human beings. Its essence determines that it is absolutely impossible to be as glamorous as most people look.
In addition to torturing one's body every day, drugs are a topic that cannot be escaped, and this topic is also a topic that is difficult for ordinary people to touch.
What is a steroid, what is HGH, and what is EPO, these concepts are concepts that most people around us will never encounter in a lifetime. Therefore, there is a common belief among the general population that "taking drugs is cheating, and should be despised and cursed". But in fact, most people don't even know that in many competitive sports nowadays, if you don't take medicine, you will lose before the game.
This point of view is reversed, that is, Lance himself said, "What is cheating? Cheating is the use of improper means to gain an advantage."
Therefore, the so-called public opinion is too much for pediatrics, because the public does not know how many competitive athletes are taking medicine nowadays, and this ratio may be unbelievable for ordinary people.
Perhaps medication is really a wrong thing, but those blind followers simply ignore those champions who use medication, and how much sweat they have paid. Ironically, there are many people who didn't get the ranking after taking the medicine. So some principles remain the same: you can only excel on the basis of training harder than others.
So I want to say, I don't defend anyone, I just want to say, those who don't understand competitive sports at all, wake up! It's not that athletes have deteriorated, but that competitive sports is basically a matter driven by interests, and its essence has been tarnished, so don't expect athletes to be saints anymore.
