Where've I taken it personally exactly?
I'm spelling it out that you're taking it personally, whilst totally contradicting your supposed interest in the person you're being so disappointed by.
It's like someone's Great Aunt Fanny dying having never met them then walking around wearing black and throwing ashes over their tear-streaked face for weeks.

"I just don't understand the how people can simultaneously not care enough to think about things or do some reading but care so much they have to decry their huge personal disappointment that the aforementioned sporting figure they'd never bothered to read about has doped."
"I think a lot of people who respond this way would be theologians in another era, mumbling catchetisms whilst deliberating on the merit of rounding up disbelievers and burning them lest God be angry and give everyone the pox."
Such flights of hyperbole, rhetoric, and thinly-veiled ad hominem attacks are inconsistent with being a disinterested observer.

And one does rather have to wonder why you find @Jimmy_Fingers mental processes so utterly fascinating and worthy of detail commentary given that apparently you're not taking it personally.

No, it's really not.

Hyperbole much? Just feels like a massive over-reaction to me expressing disappointment in finding out she cheated.

Calm your tits, I hadn't realised expressing disappointment in finding out she cheated would be so insulting to you.
I don't claim to know everything about every rider and every team, I have read some of her articles until I decided to try to avoid CN like the plague. I am fairly consistent with my regard for ex-dopers: Landis, Virenque, Millar and Armstrong etc and I generally don't like them getting too much exposure in the cycling press, sorry about that.
