I still think we need new sports specifically for the modern age and mindset.
Ones designed to not only be low injury risk but also avoid situations where you don't win if you don't take risks.
And also designed so that all the stuff people think is really super cool to watch or do remains a viable strategy.
We've got accelerometers now. Why don't we put them in the sports equipment, detect specific movements, and assign points for stuff we think is beautiful?
You wouldn't have steroid issues if the balls were radar tracked and you got the most points for hitting at an exact speed.
You could make it so there was never a reason to do a high impact lunge towards something, you just wouldn't get any points for that if you trip the G sensor.
It would be like e-sports combined with dance, rather than just a celebration of who has the best body.
That way you don't effectively limit the game to one specific personality type who really likes to push their limits and maybe is willing to do roids.
