The Best Sports Story Out Right Now

This illuminating piece on professional cycling by SI.com's Alexander Wolff. Read it to understand how there's a difference between the way Americans and Europeans view cycling, and how that difference has manifested itself in twisted ways when it comes to Lance Armstrong.

Two conclusions I take after reading this article:

1) Professional cycling is a joke, a scripted farce professional wrestling should look down upon.

2) Lance Armstrong cheated. No doubt in my mind.

But the best comparison from Wolff: Did you know that Belgium is the West Virginia of Europe?
