I think that's fair enough and not surprising. That's the way the game is played. You don't sponsor people for their bad press. I don't actually think that's even close to the least ethical thing Nike has done. By fucking miles. In fact, I have no problem with it whatsoever.
If they're actively supporting a cheater cheating they're clearly in the wrong and will be criticised, even if not by you.
But why on earth would they risk themselves by bribing people, or being "in on the secret"? Why would Lance even tell "them"? This is the stuff I don't get.
It's perhaps more subtle than a 'bribe' and a 'tell'. But if your after a simple answer how about 'millions of dollars'?
