There should be an Olympics draft, where random people from each country are sent to compete in events completely at random. These olympians are good at swimming? Boring, I've seen good swimmers before. I want to see how good my local plumber is at the high jump.

Unfortunately they banned plumbers getting drafted for the high jump after the Italian controversy.

People will say they want the Olympics to be a PED-fest where every athlete is juiced up and coated in cyberpunk augmentations but then in the next breath cry foul over the concept of trans women in sports. They can't even be consistent in their chuddery.

The Olympics should have items like the Mario & Sonic Olympics games

This video from this gym edgelord explains it

TLDR: Doping is not that substance that juices up an athlete like stimpacks in StarCraft. It's basically chems that are used to enhance training, and the frequency of usage doesn't guarantee victory and can also kill the users in the long run

I want a blood bowl, but we limit participation to haute bourgeoisie and their political lackeys. As a compensation, everyone gets sawed-off shotgun. And the ball has spikes.
