Armstrong comprehensively outcheated by Maradona in MSN poll
Over 35,000 MSN readers voted on who was the biggest sporting cheat of all time, with Diego Maradona seeing off current headline-maker and suspected cycling pharmacy Lance Armstrong.

My observation and opinion :
Unfortunately for the MSN UK, the user comments almost unanimously side with Maradona and consider Armstrong as the biggest cheat instead. LOL. One blogger by the name Michael Hunt writes, "No comparison in my opinion too many die hard football fans in this country. A split second incident (Maradona's Hand of God incident) or years of premeditated cheating?"
Even if the poll was genuine, considering that it was conducted on a UK website it was a loaded poll calculated to humiliate the Argentine football genius.
