Jens Voigt - Doping Views

Doping Views

According to Voigt, he never used doping, and was always against the practice. At the end of October 2012, Voigt wrote a long blog entry to address the turmoil caused by the Lance Armstrong-USADA doping affair, and related in it his personal experiences, stating that he "just never doped". He argued that it was impossible for him to imagine that he would be regarded as a doper and cheater by his children if he took performance-enhancing drugs. Tyler Hamilton felt Voigt was jeopardizing his fight against doping in autumn 2012. While the american has no proof, he is convinced that Voigt doped. Voigt reacted by saying that he never heard about doping. Hamilton felt this statement was like "spitting in my face", and "the most ridiculous I read in my life".

Famous quotes containing the word views:

    A foreign minister, I will maintain it, can never be a good man of business if he is not an agreeable man of pleasure too. Half his business is done by the help of his pleasures: his views are carried on, and perhaps best, and most unsuspectedly, at balls, suppers, assemblies, and parties of pleasure; by intrigues with women, and connections insensibly formed with men, at those unguarded hours of amusement.
    Philip Dormer Stanhope, 4th Earl Chesterfield (1694–1773)
