For track and field, and most Olympic sports, I'd love to see a Drug Olympics - a version where athletes can take what they want, even with biotech implants and whatever, metal legs, aerodynamic heads, why not, I'd watch it
Combat-sports, I think it's a different story, it gets very dangerous very quickly. Imagine putting two Roid Monsters in a ring with each other, I don't think there's anything entertaining about watching people die
Interesting concept about being a drug olympics. That would make the sports a whole lot interesting to watch but i do agree with no peds in boxing i for one dont want to see more deaths in the ring.
No. Let’s expand testing and have zero tolerance for cheating.
I want to see the best man win. Not the best drugs.
then the athletic commission would receive less money to pay guys to drive around and test athletes. won't work that way, they want that money so they can create bs jobs that are irrelevant, that way they can show these numbers to the government and lobby for more funding next year. there is no motivation to make it legal, similar to how drugs are in the south.
Major asian conglomerates and oligarchies purchased these huge plots of land in the south, then worked with the local officials to construct massive petrochemical refineries on the land. the people in the south in charge knew there would be long term environmental effects, they knew it would increase the cancer rating among locals, etc. But a little cash goes a long way to make one turn the cheek, same situation here. It's a shame Atlas isn't on ESPN boxing anymore, it's not the same without him.
But yeah, so now we have these massive plants, where you must absolutely not smoke pot or have it in your system, why? Because a wealthy family with money somewhere has liability issues(the owner of the plant), if something goes wrong, they don't want the guy who caused the problem to have pot in his system, because their insurance won't pay as much.
By keeping drugs illegal in these regions, you guarantee that the plants will be not only the number one job to get in the region, but that the people applying for the top positions will all be clean. The plants then are exposing the workers to Permissible Exposure Limits. These are limits set by the conglomerates that reflect how much of a toxin they think is allowable for their personnel to breathe.
Same thing with keeping drugs illegal with the boxing. There has to be some sort of guidelines. In Boxing, I feel like the Permissible Exposure Limits is 'brain damage' . It's up to each corner to pick the opponent properly.
