ruthless is certainly one of his attributes but they won and were dominant. All evidence suggest they were playing the same game as everyone else. I am sure everyone wanted the money and glory just as much. Rabobank, CSC, Once, Festina all had cards up their sleeves. USPS may have been the model which is really my point.
So how would this Sky team change everyone's idea of cycling if they could conclusively prove the negative? IE they are not cheating?

I guess what I mean was that Postal guys didn't seem to get popped (did any?), or got out of it when they did (Lance, "steroid cream"). Others did, especially if they left The Firm, eg Floyd Landis. So I'm wondering if it wasn't that Lance and company were just at the right place at the right time to intimidate and manipulate the system better than most, thereby unleveling the playing field. All just hunches, conjecture and opinion on my part.
