"Cyclists may use drugs, but at least you know who won at the end of the day".
Huh? I still don't know who really won this year's TDF.
This whole blown-call thing makes me think of the reactions of two of the current class-acts in college football: Pete Carroll and Charlie Weis.
In reference to the following plays:
1) Vince Young throwing from his knee for a Texas touchdown against USC in the 2006 Rose Bowl, and
2) The "Bush Push" in the 2005 USC-ND game,
The response of both coaches says it all - that those plays weren't the reasons behind each team's loss (even though if both plays were called for what they were, the outcome of each game would have been different). If you are such an elite program, don't put yourself in the position to be effected by bad calls or non-calls.
