In truth, the athletes who are willing to be guinea pigs for new and exciting performance enhancement techniques, could also be making medical breakthroughs and medical history. Yet, sports sanctioning bodies have become the guardians of athlete health to protect each competitor from his or her desire to go beyond normal and break records. In motor sports this happens all the time. One race team discovers a performance secret within the rules, breaks records, perhaps wins a championship. The following year the secret is outlawed by the sanctioning body or everyone else is using it and the playing field is leveled once again. Meanwhile, new records have been set.

It is a sign of the times performance breakthroughs are being discovered in most sports. In some cases it is in the design of related equipment. In others it is in athletic abilities. Maybe the best way to pull out the stops is to create parallel sports organizations under one big umbrella organization I would call Super Sports. It would outlaw mechanical bionic assistance of any kind but it would allow athletes to use any performance enhancing supplements they choose. Yes, some would use the steroids and some would seriously injure their bodies in so doing. It would not be long before word got out about what doses were reasonably safe and which were dangerous. Athletes would have to decide about an all out assault on the record books with a possibly dramatically shortened career, or a longer career with less likelihood of setting new records. At least in Super Sports it would be up to the athlete and not the rule makers and performance monitors.

As I see it, such all out athletics would prove so popular the revenues would soon dwarf those of the NFL and NASCAR. That kind of profitability would in turn compensate the super athletes well and attract more and more athletes to the Super Sports, increasing revenues. In addition, it would destroy the monopoly strangleholds of existing sports organizations. Multi millionaire investors locked out of todays organizations would be lining up, checkbooks in hand. Then again, maybe this fantasy is exclusively my own.

Ed Howes

Ed Howes is an end time prophet and social critic who only discovered this fact three years ago. Born in 1946, he is among the first of the baby boomers who discovered there is no changing the system from within the system. The change takes place within the self. Not the self others have created but the one buried deep inside us by the time we started school.

He exhorts and counsels all with ears to hear to prepare for the impending hard times such as never occurred before on Earth and provides practical suggestions for that preparation. He sees writing on the wall most see only as graffiti. He knows that grassroots master mind alliances are necessary to drive the spiritual shift in progress and is the best way to save lives. He has just begun the networking to create these alliances and invites all to pool talents, resources and efforts.

He knows all this is happening without his lifting a finger but desires to speed things up to cut losses. Think it over, leave a comment on an article or send an Email. He believes two way - multi way communication is critical to mission. Let us daily increase in wisdom, love, gratitude, reverence, healing, peace, love, joy, happiness, laughter and prosperity - against all odds.
