Well i think you are the one who is mixing things up because i dont care about Armstrong. Americans and all other bigger sporting nations do have so many medal winning people on so many different levels that people could easily move on and forget him for what he did. I know americans who just moved on from Armstrong because of his cheating. Now you, like so many other typical iranians are trying to sugarcoat the iranians cheating with some irrelevant situation out of other countries. All our big, popular national sports are ruled by doping. Have you ever seen a whole US swimming team or athletics team on dope? I have seen a whole IR Iranian Weightlifing team being caught cheating and doping. From 11 participants, 10 were on dope and the only guy they had merci with was Rezazadeh and even there people in iran were talking about politics. Many believe he was on dope too but to save the iranian federations face they atleast let them walk away with one "clean" weightlifter. I have seen wrestlers to get disqualified because of doping. I have seen iranian youth football teams filled with people who actually had to use vaajebi to hide their ages. They cheated with their shenaasnaameh, made khers haay gonde too youth players to get them to play little kids from other nations. Cheating is a big part of iranian mentality and very common among iranian athletes. Its a mentality thing and you know how we are. Our neighbours also do not cheat as much as we do. By far not.
Aside from that, i see a fundamental difference between my apporach and your approach. I for my one see nothing patriotic or nationalistic or anything in that regard when i see these sar seporde transvestites run around with chaador roosari. I find it absolutely disgusting. Its not representing iran and the values and codex i expect to see from an iranian team. This is rather a complete representation of IR-Shiite-Mullah culture on the field. They look like it, they play like it, they cheat like it...i mean by considering this kind of falaakat, iranian, you, in my opinion would actually insult everything that iranian should be like. The bar is set so low by so many of you guys, you guys are proud of so many disgusting characters, teams, men and women only because they have the same passport as you. In my understanding, a real iranian women (and man) has a responsibility to not go that low. To not play under these circumstances, to not play in such disgusting islamic tahmili clothings, to not wear that tahmili flag on the chest. They wear signs of their own badbakhti, signs of their own slavery and you are proud of them?
