De Rigueur

So, let me get this straight, the Australian cricket team sticky taped their balls together, or something, or other, really, care factor zero!

Aren't all sportsmen in this day and age cheats? Drugs, or yellow tape, or whatever it takes.

Don't they now cheat in all sports? Russian olympics, Chinese swim stars, bike riders and the rest. Isn't it now just a race to find the next undetectable performance enhancing drug to use to beat your opponent to get the million dollar payoff??

Isn't it just de rigueur?

Another rugby team has just been caught cheating on the salary cap.

Governments cheat. Politicians cheat. Big Business cheats. Banks Cheat. It is now the way of the world.
