We could just start new sports leagues that allow doping. It would be interesting to watch the NFL if people were bigger and angrier than they already are.

- johnward 11y agoAre you suggesting that most professional leagues don't allow doping? The NFL is full of drugs they just sweep it under the rug until the public notices. Kind of like Professional Bodybuilding. Everyone knows they are on drugs but we just kind of ignore it. It seems like even the DEA ignores it until you make it so obvious they have to respond. I always finding it shocking when people think pro athletes don't do as much as they can get away with to be competitive.
- cromulent 11y agoI agree that it is similar to security theatre. The federations want to give the impression that they are clean without the pain of declaring their star athletes dirty. No-one has an interest in a failed test. They do have an interest in appearing to be clean.
