Bode Miller: 'We need dope'

In comments printed in Ski Racing magazine, American ski champion Bode Miller expressed surprised that EPO is illegal in Olympic sports and argued that use of the banned substance could improve safety for skiers.

Cycling legend Eddie Merckx weighs in with his opinion about the recent drug scandals, telling L'Equipe, "We need to redefine what constitutes doping. To see where it starts and finishes. I support the war on drugs but I'll never back a zero tolerance policy."
