If paintball became an olympic sport, would you submit to drug testing?

i would submit to drug testing!

I would happily test any drugs the Olympic Commitee had available. I have years of experience in this field and would be happy to test drugs for the benefit of my beloved sport of paintball. I wouldn't even need paying.

That's what we need a man with a purpose in life, permanently high but happy to see a job well done...

Completely agree with you there (although I didn't mention privacy ) You've got to be pretty dedicated to your sport to allow this, and it's just one of the down sides to elite sportsmanship.

As for Baca, I'm with you to a point. The only downside I fear is that people will be subjected to under-tested (or even untested) drugs in order to get a small advantage on the field. Some people would gladly fcuk up the rest of their lives for an Olympic win today (not very Olympic, but it's true).

Maybe a thought for another thread... which drugs do you think would give an advantage to paintballers?

Concentrated adrenaline? I also remember reading (on PBN, so it could be bs) about some drug that would supposedly decrease your reflex time. I guess that might already be covered under banned substances, whatever it is.

Well, lemme think off the top of my head here. I can take ephadrine before playing to open my lungs up for more oxygen flow. I can take beta-blockers to steady my hand for accuracy. I can chemically up my endurance level. I can take steroids to build muscle mass for explosive starts from the box, not to meniton being able to get the strength to carry more paint without more effort. Come to think of it, I can smoke a joint to relax before a game too. This isn't to get into the whole "Blood doping" thing too.

Better living through chemistry, or so I'm told.

I'll thank you not to steal my pre-game stash...

Oh, and you forgot ketamine, so I can float outta my body and see where tha other team broke out to.

Don't forget my old friend PCP - perfect for those 'scud' playas out there

Thought about dropping some Rohypnol too, or is that dropping it in other peoples drinks.......
