yes i do feel the same way about professional sports. people cheat at professional sports all the time too. i think that's pretty funny as well. they're playing a game for money.

Esports are the same as real sports (derogatory)

We should have a league with cheating and a league without. I'm not just talking steroids, I mean the whole thing - blackmail, bribing, etc.
I want to know what country is the best at being scoundrels.

What happens if you cheat in the no-cheating-league, you ask? We throw the cheater down into a Big Hole. If they can climb out they're fine. If they've been very bad then we make the sides muddy. Bigness of hole determined by bigness of cheat.

i would love this. it would make “who can cheat better” the whole sport and the game its self is just a set up for that.

really that sounds like how sports should be in america anyway. whats more american than that?
