That was the direction the XFL went in, no? Turned out no-one wanted to play (entirely understandable really, most performance-enhancing drugs have negative effects on your overall health)
Not to mention the fact that professional athletes start their training very young, so this would essentially mean pushing drugs to kids for the entertainment of adults.
A lot of pro athletes use drugs anyway these days but making it legal would present some ethical issues.
