Performance Enhancement League (PEL)

[crazy_scar_man]

I'd like to see this. Instead of wondering which athletes are using performance enhancers, why not standardize the drugs, make them as safe as possible, and put all the athletes on the same stuff?

Let's take our best athletes, pump them full of the best drugs science can develop and put them on a field opposite of each other.

I actually suggested something similar a while back, but took it several steps further by making the hitters use aluminum bats instead of wood, and giving the infielders small clubs or blackjacks that they can swing at baserunners to try to take them down as they run.

The Majorly Juiced Baseball League...I'd pay to watch that shit in a heartbeat.

Why not just have a gladiator arena at that point and forget about the sport part of it?

I'd like to see a juiced up NFL league... or a baseball league. Let's see what the human body and science are capable of.

We'd have a baseline comparison too.

You would have to be pretty ignorant to think that MLB and the NFL aren't already juiced up leagues.

Studies have suggested that if MLB used aluminum bats, the velocities of home run shots could actually kill a spectator.

Or a line drive could kill a player.  Helmets on eveyone would look pretty funny.

Problem is we live in a copycat society, These Freaks of nature would be looked upon as Heroes and role models causing other youngsters to want to be like them. Then before you know it you will have legions of young Kids.......maybe one of your own , sticking themselves and growing up to be a huge bloated athletes only to die of a exploding heart vessel in their mid 40's. Or watch them kill a loved one in a Roid Rage incident. Its not just the games.........the general health risks are why its a illegal substance.

What?  That's not happening now?

I'm leading with that in my marketing efforts...

Or a line drive could kill a player. 

Imagine the ratings...oh, baby!!

Or watch them kill a loved one in a Roid Rage incident.

Just bring 'em to the stadium first...loved one killings make great seventh inning stretch filler.

Somehow I knew after posting that, you would reply in some manner similiar to this.

The NFL has pretty stingent testing, year round. I would guess players actively using roids is less than 10%.

As for the general public imitating players and taking roids, it would be the same kids that would imitate the 'lifestyle' in rap videos.

A Performance Enhancement League would be worth the risks.

Thread is re-split, go to!

Well sure, 'cause if you're going over the top with something, you don't go half-assed about it. You cram as much insanity into the nine innings as you can, and hope you create a spectacle so outrageous that the crowd needs to come back for more.

700 foot HRs, gratuitous violence on the basepaths and free slingshots with plastic pellets for the first 1,000 kids under the age of 12 (Did I mention the umpires will have bullseyes painted on their backs?).

[Phishfan]

How about giving them rocks instead of plastic pellets. You said yourself you don't want to go half-assed.
