Italian law enforcement authorities raided the residences of some staff members of the Austrian biathlon and cross-country teams early Sunday morning, apparently searching for banned substances

Maybe Dick Pound is right about the amount of doping going on in endurance events.

The Herald is reporting Sunday that the German boblsed teams are using illegal sleds (with runners that are not approved). Who cheats at boblsled?

Wrong team. The 'cheating' talk was in regards to Germany 2, but it's Germany 1 that won the gold.
