Spilborghs the beans

?Get more players, let them rest, spread the money around.

***

We had another suggestion.  I don't remember who said it, but it was a great idea: a player would declare before the season if he'll be using PED or not. If he makes the declaration, he forgoes testing, but has to kick back say 25% of his salary for the year.  He doesn't even have to take PED.  He can even say that he won't take PEDs, but as a matter of principle he doesn't believe in testing.  Whatever the reason: he gives up 25%.  (And if 25% is not enough, then make it 50%, or 75%... whatever it is that makes sense.)

On the other hand, if he doesn't declare, but is caught, then he gets a severe punishment (say one year suspension).  And when he comes back, he can only play for league minimum.  Basically, his "clock" is reset as if he's a rookie.
