I don't think it's libellous to suggest Pog's performance yesterday was extraordinary. Indeed, to say he rode away from the field in the same way as Armstrong did is probably fair and factual comment.
Of course, there is also an innuendo there, and I take the point that this is all speculation, innocent until proven guilty etc, so fair enough. But I actually think a bit of scepticism is healthy for the sport. More cynicism would have helped about 20 years ago.
EDIT @snoops puts it very well.
