It's a radical idea, I don't think it would work since you can dope just about anywhere but I appreciate their enthusiasm. The only way to prevent doping is to remove all possible incentives to dope. That would entail a sport that issued no awards, no prize money or salary, no national recognition, no record books, and you had to compete anonymously. I suspect the only people that would show up to compete would be those that truly loved the game. I would say that masters swimming is about half way there.
