Why they dope #221

Belgian Coach Carlo Bomans has harsh words for Dominique Cornu

Bomans is not happy that Cornu came in 35th out of 42 in the Worlds time trial:

Dominique should take care that he doesn't end up in the category of the eternal promise that never comes good. Of this kind, we have had enough.

Honestly, does this sort of criticism help? Or is Cornu, who won the U23 TT rainbow jersey in 2006, going to wake up some morning in despair of ever living up to his potential and reach for some sort of PED to help him get there? Not to say Cornu in particular ever would, but "take care that you live up to your potential" might just mean that to some cyclists.
