Athletes and Drinking

A subject I'm well qualified to address I feel.

So the big news is a couple of cyclists had a few drinks and got up to a bit of hijinks. Big deal. It is a great time-honoured tradition in most sports to get absolutely mothered after a major competition, and why not? After a few months hard training, which generally involves abstinence from alcohol (and in some sad cases, sex), the natural urge to have a bit of fun is overwhelming. The great thing is it usually only takes three thimbles of beer into a finely-tuned athletic body for said athlete to get absolutely off their face.

Let thee without sin cast the first stone. Given my past record at various orienteering events, which by the way I am proud of, I'm not even in the queue.

Super 14 picks will be up later in the day.
