Spain is Tough on Dopers... Honest... there is video to prove it

OK... this is getting silly!  Spain have come out with a video showing that they are tough on dopers.  This is the same breath as over turning a ban on Contador earlier in the week.  It seems as though this is a bit of shameless PR and not the full story.

This is just my opinion, but I feel that the athlete is ultimately responsible for their own actions.  Even if there was a case for tainted meat or any other chance accidental doping... it is still vital that we are held accountable. With the attention that is paid of diet, training, tech and equipment it seems odd that something like some random meat from home would be worth the risk. 

When Spain then tries to look tough it seems a bit empty.  I am all for catching the instigators of doping, but often feel that perhaps cycling does not have a bigger problem with drugs then other sports, we are just better at catching it.

If we are to seem creditable on the world stage, we need to have a unified approach.  Positive is positive, 2 years is the penalty and there will be no exception for good behavior or how famous you are.  Simple, clear and decisive, that is the only way it will be a deterrent.
