Hein leads Billiards? I thought he had something to do with cycling.

% = % adverse findings

Billiards 9.96%
Baseball/Softball 6.47%
Sumo 5.88%
Golf 5.21%
Bridge 4.00%
Bandy (wtf?) 3.94%
Boules (?) 3.81%
Cycling 3.78%
....
Chess 0%
Polo 0% (water/horse? or person/horse?)
Racquetball 0%
Tug of War 0%
Luge 0%

Billiards sports, 9.96%. H'mmm...
Sumo wrestling, 5.88%. Not very surprising...
Golf, 5.21%.
Bridge, 4%. WTF?
Cycling, a mere 3.78%

So there you go, guys. Must do better. With a bit of a push we could
catch up with the card players. The people who tap little balls around
the countryside are probably too hard-core to compete with, however

So what would constitute a performance-enhancing drug for Billiards?
Baseball and Sumo I can figure out for myself.

Beta blockers. Same for Bridge.

There were separate listings for "baseball", "softball", and
"baseball/softball", the latter a designation error, perhaps,
in which the specific was not specified. Baseball and softball,
where indicated, were each lower, so this is anomalous.

Given this, the rate for baseball was essentially indistinguishable
from cycling.

I was amused by the Cannabis results^^

I expected Darts and Billiards to lead (no joke) due to the lack of
control and the high effectiveness of betablockers for exactly those
sports. One of the reasons Pro-Billiards players used to drink beer was
it's beta-blocking capability and it's why Pro-Darts players still
drink before a game. I might be wrong, but I think they put some rules
on that in Billiards.
