Sorry but Pantani wasn't doped for me... his death is one of the italian mistery, probably the Mafia or the Camorra are involved in this case..

^lol that thing about Maradona was that once in a tv show he said that some players drank a "quick coffee" ("café veloz", whatever that means for him) before a match against Australia.

 

The other players of that time however replied to Maradona and said they had no idea what he was talking about. Maradona usually makes up these stories about his times as a player when he is on tv  I wouldn't take it seriously. The only drug addict is him.

Who knows, maybe the cocaine is the reason why this made up stories exist.

Who know, but here (I'm very near to Naples, about 60-70) it seems common knowledge   Maybe it's just one of the many urban legends that run on the soccer God

I don't think he tested positive, but damn, this entire story around Sky is just getting more and more ridiculous every day. It's almost getting to the level of 10-15 years ago, with people driving around with cars full of EPO "for my dog" and "for my sick grandma".
