Really stupid suggestions to improve pro sports. This is based on a conversation I had with a couple friends. Here are some examples to get you started. K and H are the aforementioned friends.<br><br> K: Now, you know those baseball mascots that come out and shoot T-shirts out of a cannon?<br> K: Bring them back, but they can shoot the batter whenever they want.<br>===<br> H: When someone heads for home...a linebacker comes for him and tries to keep him from getting there.<br>===<br> Me: Giving up a pitcher grand slam is an automatic loss.<br>===<br> Me: If the ball goes into the stands, it's still a live ball<br> Me: No matter what<br>===<br> Me: Plus every other inning, 10 random fans can roam the field.<br> K: hit a random fan, win a $50,000 contract bouns.<br> K: Hit two, get a year extension.<br> Me: If they want, the fans can score runs for the home team.<br><br>Remember, the stupider the better, and don't shy away from the dark or steroidical! <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://definecynical.mancubus.net/forum ... s/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif' /><!--endemo-->

Football? How about "Soccertainment"?!<br><br>No score draws? How about extra time multi-ball?!

Put live, wild lions and tigers on the soccer field.<br><br>Pools of hot lava on the soccer field.<br><br>Hitting the golf ball directly at another golfer and hitting said golfer counts as an automatic hole-in-one.<br><br>Put spiked pits on the basketball court, directly under the baskets.

Hyperinflate the basketballs, and shrink the hoops to about half their size. If anybody scores a basket, they win a panda.<br><br>Sin bins (penalty boxes) in every sport. 'Nuff said.<br><br>Ice the football field, and ban the use of cleats. Upon scoring a touchdown, require the team to perform a figure skating routine; they earn whatever score their dance gets.<br><br>Full contact curling. 2 minute minor for using one's broom as a weapon (see "Sin bins...").<br><br>Place a goaltender in the bowling lane. Automatic strike if you knock him down.

How about Isolde as an announcer or sportscaster? Or Millie, if she has the time outside of school? Luna, eat your heart out.
