to me, doping is less offensive than course cutting. Why? Because to dope and to win (your AG or whatever), you still need a certain level of fitness. I doubt that a couch potato or a beginner athlete can take EPO and suddenly outrun/outswim/outbike the top age groupers. But if you cut the course, you can be a total superstar with zero work. Dopers and course cutters are both delusional in that they have to justify their dark ways, but at least dopers do the whole freaking course and can say, "well, I just took this little boost drug to be the best that I can be". Course cutters do no work and LIE about it. So course cutters are bigger liars.
I am NOT justifying dopers, but I feel like the worst offense is course cutting, followed by doping and drafting.
