I think melodramatic a very good choice of words in this instance. From what I've read much of this story relies on Freeman's failure, or loss of, we don't know which, to keep medical records.
I've used Dropbox, as Freeman should have done, for similar work purposes and found it a pain in the arse to work with. While I'd agree Freeman, as a doctor, should have resolved the situation I can understand why he might not have done. A stolen laptop is either unfortunate or convenient depending on your personal view.
For me I think British cycling, without a capital C, is clean. The one disappointment is to read Bradley Wiggins, a truly great athlete and genuine individual, used TUEs before big races. I accept his explanation but it would have been better if he had never used these drugs. Personally I believe Wiggins but I wish it wasn't necessary to even consider the question and could simply take it at face value.
This, though, is a national sport - build 'em up. knock 'em down. Mo Farah?
