Would it really be so bad to have the 'enhanced' version of sports.

Amid all the controversy of steriods and performance enhancement drugs...why not have 'enhanced' sports leagues

after all if they are going to take them anyway....and since its ultimately their choice why not let them.

can you imagine how freakishly big the 'enhanced' NFL players would get....those would be some brutal encounters.

sprinters would have the legs muscles of horses, swimmers might develop webbed feet and hands!

For some people its just not worth it to shorten their lives by 1, 5, 10, 15 or 20 years just to get that edge. So some of the greatest athletets of all-time would be overshadowed because they value their life and health more then the game.

So you'd like to spend your money encouraging athletes to kill themselves?

We should, and then PERMANENTLY ban those who use them in the others, although they should be perma-banned anyway. Some sports, like mr. olympia, are enhanced, and nobody really pretends otherwise. The problem with the olympics though is that often the difference between shame and gold is merely how good you are at hiding it. I think that they should remove weight lifting from the olympics, since everyone in it is a drug head.
The rich (to middle class) can afford an alarm system. They then get a disproprotionate amount of police service compared to their needs. They should pay for it.
Many already do, he's saying let's take the blinders off and be candid about it.
