Would I watch? Sure, why the hell not. I watch sailboat racing, beach volleyball, cornhole, gymnastics, figure skating, Formula E, and competitive cheerleading, so who am I to turn up my nose at the Destroy Your Health And Reputation Olympics. As an added bonus, millions of fans can see in real time the reasons you shouldn’t put insane crap like HGH into your body other than “it’s illegal”.
My issue is that the idea has been put forward by right-wingers, and a right winger who can make anything that works is about as realistic as the Giant Purple Snorklewacker taking over as host of Lego Masters. Unless this bunch is willing to swallow a lot of pride and reach way across the isle to hire a lot of competent non-Neanderthals who understand how to make a successful big sporting event, I expect this to implode harder than the AAF.
On a more basic level, do these guys have anything besides words? I recall how this one random yahoo who never accomplished a damn thing in his life proposed the “All American Basketball Association” (Remember that one?), and it very predictably never moved a micron past the whiny rant stage. Seriously, all the right-wing Great Ideas that were empty bluster beginning, middle, and end could fill the Library of Alexandria. I’d have to see, at the absolute bare minimum 1. a tentative list of events, 2. a tentative list of athletes, 3. a tentative list of officials, 4. a tentative list of venues, 5. a tentative list of sponsors, 6. a tentative schedule, 7. a prize structure, 8. questions about the inevitable controversies being openly addressed and answered, and 9. a lot of people outside the conservative bubble making noise about this new event before I could start taking it seriously.
