It shook the world to hear that the greatest Tour de France cyclist of all time used drugs. What do you think about this?

I'm not surprised, nor do I feel sorry for him being stripped of his medals. Also, "doped" doesn't mean "used drugs." "Dope" is a slang term for drugs that produce dopamine, a neurotransmitter which creates a euphoric or "reward-driven" effect. Performance enhancing substances do not create this effect, nor are they illegal in certain cases, but are verboten by some professional regulations.
